Re: [Netstumbler] Zyxel Card Support?



The GPS must be accessible via a COM port, and must support NMEA or Garmin
protocols.

I have a Deluo USB GPS, and it works fine (it is a serial device with a
serial->USB converter built into the cable). My big complaint with it is the
initial Aquire time, which can be several minutes.

On a NetStumbler note... The Deluo spits out NMEA with a lat/lon (probably
the last known one) while does not have a verified position fix.  It does
mark these NMEA sentence with the "no fix" flag, but Network Stumbler
accepts them as valid and will save the bogus coordinates.  The Scripts all
seem to have extra checking to make sure the GPS data is actually changing
before accepting it, but it would be nice if NS would validate that and
discard the data for both the NS1 logging and the script.

Hi,

Does anyone know if the Zyxel B-100 or B-101 card will be supported soon?

Prolly asked many times before, but here goes anyways - what is the minimum
GPS that will work with Netstumbler? Will a USB GPS work (Like a Deluo?)

Thanks,

Jerry
