If I don't expect it, why will the manufacturers make it? They seem to be happy to court the guy offering 1 megabit out of a $8k radio when anything made in the past 8 years could do the same thing.
Do I expect to take Joe mainstream away from Comcast? No. Do I want to be seen as the dialup to their superhighway? Definitely not. I plan to switch to usage based billing, but I also want a system that will supply the demand. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com -------------------------------------------------- From: "3-dB Networks" <wi...@3-db.net> Sent: Friday, March 20, 2009 2:01 PM To: "'WISPA General List'" <wireless@wispa.org> Subject: Re: [WISPA] 2nd Look @ 3.65 ? > Well the Canopy 430 series is going to do 42Mbps... but even then how well > is that going to work... considering your clients are going to have to be > within 2 miles. > > I don't think you should have a realistic expectation that wireless (in a > point to multipoint environment) is going to match the "next generation" > demand.
