Wimax in 3.65 is 7MHz IIRC... ?
With this sort of bandwidth, and the channel bonding ?that is possible? this could be a real game changer..

Expect hard core competition. ryan On Mon, Apr 5, 2010 at 8:32 AM, Harold Bledsoe <hbled...@deliberant.net>wrote: > 6MHz is a weird channel size for our industry traditionally but in 5MHz > ~25Mbps aggregate would be comfortable. > > -Hal > > On Mon, 2010-04-05 at 07:39 -0700, Ryan Spott wrote: > > Hey Steve, > > > > I use the cable-cos as an example.
