Distance???

Whats the distance on this? doesn't Wimax suppose to go 50+ miles?

I hope so cause I am about 35-40 miles from DC (about 30 miles in a straight line).

roughly 30 miles, but I would say less than that.. Probably 20-25 miles for most reliable service.

No. Unless you are a couple thousand feet in the air, line of site is much less than 50 miles. More like 5-10 miles for antennas under 100 feet and that would be under ideal conditions.
