 PaladinSage of the light join:2001-08-17 Chester, IL | Homeland Security I don't care a bit about this hype with BPL. Even though I'm not a ham radio user, and I believe that there are more relevant communication technologies in place today than amateur radio, the real comparison is BPL vs. WiMax. To me it's quite apparent that WiMax is the major player in trying to bring rural broadband services to fruition. By the time that BPL actually makes it to the sticks, WiMax will be there cleaning its clock. WiMax just has greater speed and distance potential to bring broadband to the rural masses, while BPL is just going to get stuck in static. -- First rule of fiber optics: you do not talk about fiber optics! |
