The TI-Navigator Access Point is the proprietary WiFi router used to build a wireless network of TI-Nspire handhelds in class. It connects to the host teacher computer through USB.



In a previous news, we were discovering the included motherboard together:



And I was telling you that there was something else in the TI-Navigator Access Point...

Just think it again:
  • it's written "power by NetGear" on the case, but the 'NetGear' word doesn't show up on the motherboard... Roll Eyes
  • there is a WiFi antenna on the case, but not on the motherboard... Shocked
  • the motherboard has an ethernet connector, but there is no external ethernet connector on the case...  Huh?
  • an ethernet cable is plugged... Frustrated



The propriety TI-Navigator Access Pointer router is just built around... a perfectly standard NetGear ProSafe WAG102 router! Grin






And what if you could now build your own TI-Nspire wireless network for cheap ? Wink

Wonder how TI's gonna fare when the testing authorities find out shocked

Anyway, that's some really interesting news. Can't wait to see what Nspire developers will do with it.

Oh wow... if 3rd party networks are possible that's gonna be amazing, considering how cheap routers are. One thing that might be discouraging people from attempting making multiplayer games or online stuff is how expensive the navigator devices are.

Don't worry, I bet they made all that very legal Tongue
And anyway what in this packaged thing could be illegal ?
For example, if I have the right to sell a product, can't I just be selling a product of mine which improves/modify some other company's product directly, from the outside ? (I dont think TI modified the inside of the NetGear router)

Oh, I was just imagining how teachers/proctors who are paranoid about cheating would react to finding out there's basically a router inside the Navigator.

I think that the interfacing card has an important role which might be related to security and explain why non-Nspire clients can neither see or connect to this private WiFi network.


We might find out by digging into the TI-Navigator Access Point Firmware (based on Linux and uBoot):
http://tiplanet.org/forum/archives_voir.php?id=6071

Note that I don't know if that firmware is flashed into the interface card ROM, into the NetGear router (custom firmware) or into both.

Nice find! It looks like some really interesting things could be developed if we are able to figure out how to let regular routers "see" the nSpire. Smiley

Yes exactly. I thought I was going to find NetGear PCB/chips inside the Navigator Access Point... not a complete NetGear router Tongue

Spoiler for Still Alive:
This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.

Aperture Science:
We do what we must because we can.
For the good of all of us
Except the ones who are dead.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake
And the science gets done and you make a neat gun
For the people who are still alive.

I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart and killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you.

Now these points of data make a beautiful line
And we're out of beta we're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD I got burned think of all the things we learned
For the people who are still alive.

Go ahead and leave me.
I think I prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you.
Maybe Black Mesa -
THAT WAS A JOKE. HA HA, FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, this cake is great:
It's so delicious and moist.

Look at me still talking when there's science to do.
When I look out there it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I've experiments to run there is research to be done
On the people who are still alive

And believe me I am still alive.
I'm doing science and I'm still alive.
I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive.
While you're dying I'll be still alive.
And when you're dead I will be still alive.

Still alive
Still alive
