Today we had a company come to us pushing wimax. Admittedly I've never used wimax, nor do I know a lot about it. From what I can see looking at Google images of the technology and how it's deployed, it looks no different than the PtP and PtMP that we all use with 900 MHz, or 2.4 and 5.x GHz.

Thought I should add, the wimax protocol is independent from the frequency band used. 3.65ghz is commonly used for wimax by WISPs in this country due to the light licensing, but equipment is available to run wimax in 5.8, 3.65, 3.5, 2.3/2.5, 900, 700 that I'm aware of. There is also non-wimax
