Vivint and Google are both saying they are doing this. No idea what kid of
radios they are using. I talked to a couple of Vivint locals at the
AnimalFarm show. They both claim to be getting 1 Gbps at their home with
the millimeter radio. I think it was 60 GHz. I asked them if it stays up
during rain and snow. They claimed it did. Assuming the path was a quarter
mile or less.

Subject: [AFMUG] Current state of Hybrid Fiber/Wireless
Where are we with this concept as a WISP industry?
Let's say I have $200k to invest and already have mainline fiber in or near
to the neighborhoods.
What equipment do I buy to get the best speeds to residential and small
business customers?
Is there equipment in the 60GHz or similar bands that are for sale/ready for
use?
Is the topology still to connect a house or two in the area with fiber and
LOS to everyone else and deploy PtMP?
Thoughts?
