Re: Ask The WISPs

This is meant to be used in a 60 mile radius it looks like from the diversity antennas they have on the AP. yes if you use higher gain directional antennas (and make sure your AP can extend the time to wait for returning acknowledgements (cisco ap's have a setting for this) then already people have been using them at great distances. 20-30 miles right now in flat land maybe. Good luck for WISPs in the hilly areas of new england.

Yep, I don't think Intel will be resolving LoS issues

Don't count on Intel doing anything for the US very quickly. The article stated it was to be marketed in "developing countries". Typical of Intel, they put WiMax down the Amazon river but not down I-40! I guess that wouldn't produce any PR...

Agree 100% on this one !!!! Would be more than happy to sign on, but don't live in a developing country, just the USA of A.

Same here, I would gladly pay the $$ for one of those on my roof.

Can the 2 technologies be used together, this and WiMax?
