A friend of mine has one of those DRSI boards that fit inside a PC clone
(the model with two 1200-baud modems on the card) and we're trying to
get his machine set up on JNOS. We've tried both version 1.07b and
the beta 1.10x9 but have run in to the same problem on both versions.
The symptom is that the unit will transmit packets just fine, but will not
receive anything. The "drsistat" command shows receive interrupts and a
significant number of aborts.
If someone has successfully used JNOS and one of these DRSI cards, could you
e-mail me the relevant portions of your AUTOEXEC.NOS file?
Thanks & 73's!

I am experiencing the same problem, it has worked in prior versions of JNOS,
but not the last few, any pointers appreciated.

Really? How do they do that? Why hasn't this become the big new thing in
wireless office lans? Does anyone have an documented cases of this? How
much does the equipment to do this cost?
In more technologicly "normal" circumstances, the vans just have a spectrum
analyzer and perhaps a radio to listen with. The Edison company used to send
a "trouble shooter" out with a Collins 75S-1.
Looking for TV sets is easy, 15KHz sweep spike and usually the first LO
spur. The "Anti-Z-channel-bandits" patrol used to cruise the neighborhoods
looking for a 2 GHz LO and a matching 72 MHz downlink signal. But alas,
no picture monitoring.
Sad but true, 99% of all interferance cases end up being tracked down to
faulty heater thermostats and dirty hightension line insulators.
