Re: well Or they see what I see. Their cost for deployment of WiMAX could actually be much cheaper than that of any provider if they run copper to the towers at DOCSIS 3.0 speeds that can serve a majority of customers on smaller tiers.
WiMAX can also be used to transmit more than just IP based services. I don't know what kind of spectrum they might have but with their coverage footprint of cable across their markets, the network is more than capable of handling the load including their powerboost services.
They are also in a better position than what Sprint will ever be at this point. Of course all the problems Comcast has with it's landline will also go into it's wireless with bit torrent throttling amongst other things according to users here. It's one step for WiMAX though as the technology struggles to get adopted by carriers who see the big reward at the end of the tunnel but are falling short on financial backing to make such a thing a reality. |
