Hey folks, author here. Appreciate the comments and discussion on the post! Happy to continue the discussion or answer any follow-on questions folks have about our investigation and resolution.
- sharpshadow 2y agoGood read thanks. To the point of having a open platform, they would probably lose their monopoly. I could then just spin up my own mobile network and provide service like a wifi network with any credentials and do what I want. I guess there needs to be a big initial effort with lots of maintaining afterwards. If everything goes as expected the AIs could provide that in the future.
- nimish 2y agoWould just be easier to implement an open source one from scratch given that most IOT modems are just (poorly written) software with an SDR anyway. CEVAwaves or RivieraWaves certainly is. If it can be done for BLE, 802.15.4 and WiFi, it can be done for cellular; ORAN is enough for base-stations so it's not totally secret. But at the end of the day, aside from the stupid ITU protocols, LTE/5g isn't rocket science. It's bog standard OFDMA radio -- nothing fancy these days. I ended up reverse engineering parts of Sony's Altair derived modems but got bored, maybe I should publish that
