Hi!
I've been working on a set of patches to enable configuring the nanoBTS to not only support GPRS but also EDGE. After some testing, I've merged them into the master branch.
In order to enable EDGE, you need to use 'gprs mode egprs'.
Also, you still need an external SGSN or use the gprs-sgsn branch (which has been rebased). Your phones should then show 'E' instead of 'G'.
I haven't actually benchmarked the transfer speed, i.e. if it really is giving the expected performance improvement.
Regards, Harald
Hi
Do you know of any opensource SGSN's or are they all third party commercial offeringS?
Thanks
Stuart

I am quite sure there are no FOSS implementations. That's why I've started my own in the gprs-sgsn branch. But that still only supports the signalling plane and no data plane. If you wait 1-2 more months, I'm sure it will be finished at some point soon.
