Hi!
I'd like to play around with OsmocomDECT a bit, but my prehistoric
laptop with PCMCIA (my Pismo) has given up on me and all desktop
computers I have are PCIe, none has PCI (the oldest being a PowerMac
G5).
But they all do have USB, and I have a Sinus 702 data, also known as
Gigaset M34, a USB DECT adapter. Here are the details as seen from the
PC side:
DECT Data Device:
Produkt-ID: 0x0026
Hersteller-ID: 0x0681 (Siemens Information and Communication Products)
Version: 1,00
Seriennummer: 00045ABF42
Geschwindigkeit: Bis zu 12 MBit/s
Hersteller: Siemens AG
Standort-ID: 0x04100000 / 5
Verfügbare Stromstärke (mA): 500
Erforderliche Stromstärke (mA): 90
I couldn't find too much information on the chipset in these things,
but if anyone is interested in hacking around with this, I could bring
it to the camp.
I have a similar adapter, but they work fundamentally different from the
PCMCIA/PCI devices as far as I can tell. Basically they're running at
least the MAC layer (possibly also DLC layer) on the device itself and
only export a higher layer API. Still it might be possible to support
them using my stack, but so far there's is exactly zero information
about how they work. I guess having a closer look at the windows
drivers would be a good start.
