How Can I Stream GPS Data to Use With a Third-party GPS
Application?
GPS NMEA data is streamed over Wi-Fi or over a tethered USB connection using a virtual COM
port.
Follow these steps to stream NMEA data for a third-party GPS application.
1. Set GPS Mode to Continuous. (See Setting the GPS Mode.)
2. Determine the COM port number that your NETGEAR device (that is, your NETGEAR
Zing Mobile Hotspot) is using.
In the following example for Windows, the Device Manager shows that COM 16 is used.
In your case, the COM port number might be different.
3. (If you don't know how to access the Device Manager, see
http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22868.)
4. Configure your GPS application to use the same COM port. For help, see the
documentation of the GPS application.
Questions About WPS
Find answers to common questions about WPS.
What is WPS?
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) provides a fast, simple, and secure way to connect WPS-enabled
devices to your Wi-Fi network. You don’t have to give the name (SSID) and Wi-Fi password of
your network to other users.
The WPS feature is available on certain cameras, printers, smartphones, and laptops. These
devices have either a hardware button or a WPS-related option in the software. Please consult
the user documentation of your device.
How do I Use WPS?
