A neighboring WISP to me ran in to this last year when a new competitor moved in and placed towers (20' taller than the existing WISP) within 1/4 mile of all the existing WISPs towers. I ended up attempting to help the existing WISP but was unable to prove anything besides noisy 2.4 GHz.
They had an open case with the FBI and as far as I know the end result nothing more than some shoulder shrugging from all parties. The interference eventually went away (or at least was minimized.) That existing WISP was just sold a few months ago, and I have customers running from both of them to my service, so I guess it worked out well in the end for me :) Graham On 9/12/07, Jack Unger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > It's hard for me to accept that there are a few inconsiderate bullies > out there who would intentionally and maliciously jam other WISPs in > order to take over the customer base.
