That's exactly it. This isn't a product aimed towards the guys that advertise streaming, nor is it aimed towards a user base that wants to do solely that. It's a product designed for the customer with no other good options.

With the data caps on cellular 4G and the all around piss-poor performance of satellite, some customers only have 900MHz Canopy as another viable option aside from dialup. In our area it's going to be big for the company that purchased our WISP - especially since the group they are a part of who owns their 700MHz spectrum is flirting with selling it to ATT.

In fairness, some WISPs have consistently said they are deep in trees and 900 MHz spectrum is clean for them and also their customer base doesn’t need to stream 4K, they just want more throughput than 900 FSK will give them. Via wider channels, higher modulation, or magic. I know many of us can’t make the same statements about noise floor or customer expectations, but some people consistently say they want such a product. And who knows, maybe there’s some magic, too? Like maybe more robustness to multipath, which seems to bother 900 FSK quite a bit.

40Mbps by late 2016 should be just in time so we can hook up 1 customer to it because 4K TV will be streaming 50Mbps on Netflix
