Santa Clara, CA | why not slap on a wap at the dsl modem? Instead of wiring the house - get one of those $29.95 802.1(b,g,n,etc) access point and let the home owner buy those Linksys wet-11 or something similar.
The big question is - can the RBOC deploy fast enough DSL for IPTV - some of us can't even get DSL (for example - my former place) |

| wireless has too many issues w/ non sustainable bandwidth, interference for this to work....however possible solution may be in the mpeg2/4 streams of video as it is more compressed or using powerline networking technology.... eventually there will no longer be individualized services such as internet/cable/satellite/power/telephone... it will all be integrated under a major technology... if the power companies hurry their ass up and develop the powerline technology to it's maximum capability (possibly similar to fiber) then they will be the leaders....otherwise I believe mah bell will be holding the cards... offering every service under the sun on one technology medium. |
