| In Houston, where EarthL is just now starting it is crazy
for them not to do everything they can do to get the project infrastructure in place WITHOUT putting OLD radio technology in.
They are starting to place 802.11 b/g with n right around the corner and available BEFORE THEY'LL BE DONE laying basic infrastructure.
With 802.11n requiring a fraction of the antenna placements and much better coverage through the trees... it just seems like politics and land grab that has anyone deploying the legacy stuff.
I think there is such a thing as "waste" when it comes to deploying CITY WIDE wireless in such large cities given current technology. Just because current WiFi seems affordable on the personal scale doesn't mean it is for the 100s of tree and building covered square miles of real estate some cities want covered.
Why not plan for the next generation technology instead of deploying the older one? |
