Re: [Openbts-discuss] OpenBTS often can't be found

[Joe M <jm...@gm...>]

Hi Tom and all,
as a mentioned sometimes my openbts is visible sometimes doesn't. sometimes
it can connect.
rarely I was able to sendsms and sendsimple. so it's not so stable.

here's my OpenBTS outputs. as you can see I was able to connect one MS but
the noise went up in few secs and I can't sendsms or sendsimple to the MS.

thanks for any inputs.

cheers
