Basic wireless 3GPP


1.1What�s the difference between GPRS and UMTS? 

This is quite confusing for many people. According the 3GPP standard (TS 23.060) GPRS defines the packet data services provided by a common core network to two main types of  access networks - GSM based and WCDMA based (UMTS).

1.2What�s the relation between GPRS and IP? 

GPRS uses IP based signaling/control protocols between its components. Beyond that it transparently carries IP packets between the mobiles and the Internet. This is done by method known as encapsulation and tunneling.

1.3Can you do voice calls with GPRS?

GPRS provides an IP data pipe. Therefore by definition you can do anything on top of it including voice. QoS is a major issue though for voice over GPRS, and IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) tries to resolve it.

1.4What is the relation between GPRS and SIP?

SIP rides transparently over GPRS just like any other IP based protocol. IMS and QoS muddy this picture a bit. You can read all about it in 3G IMS Illustrated.

1.5What is the relation between UMTS and SIP? 

Same as GPRS.

1.6What is the relation between CDMA (1X) and SIP? 

Very similar to GPRS/UMTS and SIP. the designers of CDMA 1X (3GPP2) has adopted the 3G way (IMS) for doing VoIP/multimedia.

1.7Does SIP care at all about the access network that uses it? 

No, apart from QoS impact, which may dictate what codecs will get used and what quality you may expects from a multimedia session.

1.8Can SIP run on top of 802.11? 

Sure. In SIPs eyes 802.11 is just another type of access network, which can carry it.

Beini WifiWay BackTrack Alternative Yes Xiaopan OS Its Better!

Beini is outdated, unsupported and lets face it super buggy. I managed to find a TinyCore Linux (TCL) that has been built similar to Beini. It boots much faster and has a few benefits over Beini. Check the video out below to see a successful Reaver Inflator run. The developer djyuzi at anywlan is active and pushing updates through at warp speed. Features � Reaver Inflator �   New GUI �   Higher Screen Resolution �   Connect to Wifi Networks �   Notepad �   XFE File Manager Updated �   Kernel 3.0.21 �   FeedingBottle 3.2.3 XiaoPanOS 0.4.2 � Update Tinycore 4.5 core  � Update minidwep-gtk-30419  � Update compat driver, update the firmware (including RTL8192SU)  � Added r8168, r8169 drivers  � Updated BCM43xx official drivers  � Updated the RTL8187L official driver (does not support the 8187B)  � You can run / home/tc/rtl8187B.sh compat driver on boot through XFE to load the rtl8187B manually Reaver Inflator is working on my ALFA RTL8188RU Device in Parallels also works for the RTL8187L S

Bash and Python scripts to unzip and modify an OpenOffice odt document

.odt files are actually containers (you can see one using unzip -l document.odt ). Within the container, content is in the content.xml file. Script info source Heres what Ive figured out about opening, modifying, and saving the content of an .odt file: To open the container for editing: # bash $unzip path/container.odt content.xml $unzip path/container.odt content.xml -d working/dir/path/ # -d places content.xml in a different directory. # Creates a content.xml file where you want it. # python >>>import zipfile >>>odt_file = zipfile.ZipFile(path/to/file.odt,a) >>> # Options are read only, write only, and append to existing >>>raw_xml = odt_file.read(content.xml) >>> # Reads content.xml in as a string, doesnt place a file. Modify the content.xml file by hand, or using a script, or using Python. >>> # Tip for using python: ElementTree is good at XML, and it can parse a file, but it cannot parse a string! >>> # So heres h
