Hancock, N.H. – A neural-network approach to packet sizing under development at SmartPackets Inc. could give wireless networks a boost in throughput without any hardware enhancements. The system has ...

Modules, dev kits, reference designs and protocol-stack software simplify the design of wireless equipment. But engineers still need a way to monitor wireless communications to ensure that the proper ...

A team of researchers from MIT, Caltech, Harvard, and other universities in Europe, have devised a way of boosting the performance of wireless networks by up to 10 times -- without increasing ...

A network router plays a crucial role in how data packets travel to and from a computer to host across the Internet. Routers serve as the junction point between the computers in a network and an ...

Smartphones must stay connected to mobile networks at all times to function properly. The core component that enables this constant connectivity is the communication modem (Baseband) inside the device ...

We’ve seen a few near-future sci-fi films recently where computers respond not just to touchscreen gestures but also to broad commands, like swiping a phone to throw its display onto a large flat ...

Monitoring or capturing Wi-Fi traffic on Android smartphones and tablets is possible. I’m not just talking about Wi-Fi stumblers or traffic usage apps, but full network sniffers that can capture and ...

The overall equation is pretty simple: If you want to understand network traffic, you really should install Wireshark. And, if you really want to use Wireshark effectively, you should consider this ...
