Re: quote from the same article:

Since they don't say otherwise, I'm assuming that 30km is to an exterior antennae with line-of-sight.

 It would have to be. Links at that distance couldn't be done without an exterior antenna that provides some gain. at least not with the wimax stuff I've seen. The point to my comment was that Karl decided to focus on the bad part of the WiMAX story without referencing the good as well.

Also keep in mind the 3G networks are only being deployed in city areas in AUS right about now. Telstra and Optus are both deploying HSDPA with some HSUPA in dense population areas. So 6mbps in a 30km cell radius is about right to compete with the current market offerings. Once wave 2/3 of wimax introduces mobility, spatial diversity and MIMO we will probably see better rates and distances.

The reports here stoop to the same level as the nightly news infotainment shows. It all about sensationalism. Otherwise no audience. Same goes for most of the articles here at BBR too. Focus on the aspects that will attract eyes and generate traffic. That is the way the game is played, and it is no different here at BBR.
