Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Installing GNURadio 3.4.2 with Ubuntu 14.04

[Marcus Müller]

Hi Rodrigo,

really consider gr-ieee802-11 [1], as from reading uwicore_MAC's
description there's nothing that gr-ieee802-11 doesn't do, and in
contrast to the 3.3-based uwicore_MAC it works great with modern soft-
and hardware. Is there any reason why you're stuck with uwicore?

Greetings,
Marcus
