 | |  Some interesting selected findings
The furthest useable signal attained reached out to approximately 4.35 miles away from the WiMAX base station, using the outdoor CPE and 1.05 miles using the indoor CPE.
The test concluded that we were able to get a maximum of 7.5 Mbps download and over 8.9 Mbps in upload speed.
The test data shows the WiMAX network to provide adequate performance to be able to deliver streaming media encoded up to 4Mb/s.... The lab testing did not reveal any issues at the 700Kb or 2Mb rates. The 4Mb stream revealed only minimal issues. Data discards on the downlink measured 0.000341% and no discards on the uplink.
Average round trip latency was approx 44 msec.

 | | | Re: Some interesting selected findings For a signal to go 4.35 miles and then come back, it should take 46.7 microseconds. 44 milliseconds is an increase in latency by a factor of 1000. Can processing a ping really create that much overhead? | |

That number was for a video streaming application and not a ping. It includes all the delay in both the hardware and the application.

Banks, OR | Well Duh ... An "experimental license". Let's see, licensed spectrum equals:
-- no interference from other systems, unlike the Part 15 Wi-Fi spectrum "free for all",
-- higher TX power,
Add them to together and you get: greater coverage and higher speed. It would be real news if the opposite had been the case. | |

kudos:1 | BS 4mbit per sec? Where is my 50 to 100? 5 miles? Where is my 20 miles? And of course the range will be better than wifi. Wimax is licensed spectrum with much higher transmit power. | |

1 edit | Re: BS It seems as if maybe you are having trouble from this real world test and trying to put it in the category of the theoretical limits?
Still around 7-10mbps down and up to 8mbps upload is a good trial no matter how you slice it, especially to not be tied to one location  | |
