Hi! I'm a student that want to do a google summer of code with you during this summer. My idea is to write a Linux driver for a proprietary network protocol used by the outdoor Gemtek antennas(which are essentially a LTE modem) to communicate over ethernet+LLC to the indoor Gemtek Access Points. My goal is to allow anyone to use any Linux-based router (like a Turris Omnia/openwrt) instead of a Gemtek Access Point. I think it's a great idea but I have some questions. -In which area my idea is located? networking? -Should the idea implemented as Linux driver or as userspace program?
