As a reminder, you can find the latest documentation from our website: https://na.baicells.com/documentation/.

Spectrum analyzer guide was added under “eNodeB > eNB GUI” and the full configuration guide can be found under “CloudCore, System & Misc.> Network Administration”.

Where’s the best place to report an issue with this new firmware? It’s just a usability issue.

On the Overview page, it is no longer possible to look at key metrics of the UEs, without having to scroll to the left and the right. For instance, you can’t see the BLER and Throughput at the same time.

On the older version, there was less space between the metrics, so you could see all the numbers together much easier.

Thanks for looking, and please let me know the best place to report issues like this, once the fw has been released as stable.
