I have heard a lot about wireless Internet using GPRS. Is this compatible with Comrexs GSM solutions?
GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) is one of several interim (“2.5G”) solutions using the public Internet for data transfer. GPRS is good for web browsing, e-mail and portable multimedia. But packet-based data, sent through the Internet, is in danger of network congestion and delays, which are clearly not good for real-time broadcast. We are not supporting codecs on these so called “2.5G ” services for several reasons: 1. Data throughput is typically asymmetrical on these services. They transmit high speed from the network to the wireless phone, but allow only low speed transmission from the wireless phone to the network. The path from the phone is the direction we need the greater throughput. 2. Rather than dial-up services, these are connections via the public Internet. Similar to the services from your ISP, they are subject to the congestion and unpredictability associated with Internet delivered data. 3.These services are “best effort,” meaning that if someone makes a voice call w
