Milton Keynes looks set to become the first British town to get a high-speed wireless network based on so-called Wimax technology. Net connection firm Pipex is to trial a network in the town, which should be up and running by the end of 2006.
Unlike wi-fi technology, Wimax offers high-speed net access over long distances, instead of just a few metres. Pipex said it hoped to have Wimax deployed in eight UK towns by 2008. more: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/5271894.stm rich http://www.counterwork.co.uk 07812444612 ---- Message sent via freenetname webmail - http://www.freenetname.co.uk/ Up to 8Mb broadband now from just £9.99 a month _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
