It's not WiFi

Technically speaking, this is not WiFi since the signaling scheme they are using would be incompatible with off the shelf equipment. This sounds more like a trunking scheme where they can repeat to remote locales and rebroadcast the link locally using standards based equipment. Sounds like WiMax to me.

Perhaps Intel should contact the wizards at ParkerVision. Didn't they get all of the patents for signaling WiFi over long distances?
