| 3 | By default, this project creates a custom wireless ethernet link between two computers, each attached to a WARP kit (FPGA board + clock board + radio board). Each computer is unaware that a wireless link is present, and simply communicates with its neighbor using a standard wired connection. The WARP boards are "inserted" between the two computers to provide a transparent wireless bridge. The following diagram gives a simple overview of the configuration used for this example. |

| 7 | If it not possible to obtain two computers, the WARP link may be inserted into the wired connection between a single computer and a DHCP server. Typically, the WARP boards will be inserted between the computer and an RJ45 jack in a laboratory or office. This configuration, while appearing to be a simpler one, may be more difficult to troubleshoot in the event that problems arise. |
