Bridging 3G, EDGE, GPRS, and WiFi

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the staying-plugged-in dept.

Rob writes to tell us CBR is reporting that T-Mobile is expanding their core network to provide seamless integration of 3G, EDGE, GPRS, and WiFi networks. From the article: "Nortel said it was able to provide T-Mobile with the new service thanks to integration of Nortel's existing Gateway GPRS Support Node with Azaire Networks' IP Converged Network Platform. Azaire's IP-CNP provides an integrated hybrid network by extending the services from the existing 3G and GSM core network investments over new access technologies like WiFi and WiMax, Nortel said."

    If you are not already familiar with all of these acronyms, then you probably don't care. Perhaps you got lost on your way to digg?

    Mmm, I love the smell of burnt karma!
