Ruckus Wireless logoRuckus Wireless has rethought its management approach for its entry-level enterprise Xclaim access points.

CloudManager for Xclaim is a "100 percent subscription-free" cloud service to manage Xclaim access points. It can be used to replace the app-based management system supported via Xclaim’s Harmony Android and iOS apps or in addition to it. But each AP can be managed by only one method.

CloudManager uses a responsive web-browser interface and can support an "unlimited number" of Xclaim access points. APs can be managed in multiple locations as long as they have internet access.

CloudManager stores one week of historical Xclaim access point data, which can be viewed real-time or via pre-configured management reports, which can be downloaded or emailed.

CloudManager for Xclaim is scheduled to be available by the end of June. New or existing customers can request to join the open-beta program now on the Xclaim website.

Hole discovered in Wi-Fi 802.11n Draft 2.0 Certification test

SmallNetBuilder has discovered a hole in the Wi-Fi Alliance's 802.11n Draft 2.0 test suite that can allow Wi-Fi Certified products to interfere with existing wireless networks, in direct violation of a mandatory Certification requirement.

A long-running battle in the standard has been whether to allow the use of "wide-channel" operation in the 2.4 GHz band that is used by the majority of Wi-Fi products. The mode, also referred to as "channel bonded" or "40 MHz bandwidth" mode, uses up two of the available three non-overlapping channels in the band, making it impossible to avoid interfering with other wireless networks operating in the center of the band.

Interference from draft 802.11n channel-bonded networks can, at worst, render 802.11b and g wireless networks inoperable and, at minimum, cause slowdowns and unreliable connections.
