WiMAX Interop

The WiMax Forum wrapped up its Interoperability PlugFest October 1st, at Bechtel Labs in Frederick, Maryland, to prepare for WiMAX certification. The plugfest is an interoperability event. All the manufacturers are brought together to work out problems in interoperability. Interoperability of Mobile WiMAX gear is more critical than fixed WiMAX. That's because different mobile clients will be required to connect to different basestations on a routine basis. If the press releases are to be believed, things are looking good for interoperability.
