Sign me up!
Is anyone using a WiMax connection in this way? I haven't seen anything
locally, but Buffalo isn't generally on the cutting edge for this sort

Just a half-baked notion: wondering if anyone currently running 11a/g
may be contemplating the merits of forgoing 11n for WiMax looking 12-24
months down the road?
