Re: DECT interference?
After much friggin' around. I think it was the Belkin router. I switched back to my old WRT54G and it seemed to have cleared up the problem. I'll post an update if it no longer works. |

Fredericksburg, TX | Not to gloat, but I've found that Belkin makes lousy routers compated with Linksys. I didn't see your posting about using that router vs. your WRT or I would have said "try the other one!" |

| It's ironic. I switched from my WRT to the belkin when I had ISP issues before. I find it amusing I had to switch back from the WRT when I switched WISPS.
It also turns out that even switching to the WRT I'm still having random slowdowns. Almost always in the early night (8-10 pm or so). Dunno if it's maybe humidity-based? There was no wind last night, but my signal dropped from 3 lights to 2 lights.
Ah, the dangers of living JUST within range of your WISP tower. |

Fredericksburg, TX | On the other hand, WiMax may have the "cell breathing" problem, where high usage means lower ange. Which would explain for the slowdown and signal loss...I know cell breathing happens for CDMA... |

| Interesting! (it happened tonight btw. that's 3 nights in a row between 8 and 10).
What's ange?
I also find it interesting that I have an anti-terrorist army base training facility a degree or two off of my line to the tower. I wonder if somehow they're involved since this slowdown has happened during the day before (the day after I first got it). |

| Maybe they borrowed this from the US Army.
