Re: I seen this being offered before...
said by swintec  :said by wifi4milez :The first talking point is that Clearwire does NOT provide wifi access, their service is provided via Wimax. As for the quality, well that remains to be seen..... I thought Clearwire has been around a lot longer than this WiMax thing? I seem to remember seeing them around like 2 or more years ago, long before Wimax. There site doesnt offer much into how they operate except that it is off of cell towers. » www.clearwire.com/wireless-broad···view.php They launched using pre-Wimax in 2004. Clearwire owns the majority of the 2.5ghz wimax spectrum here in the US, therefore allowing them to serve almost all communities. For more info Google "clearwire wimax".

You know I went to go talk to a sales rep about the phone service. The rep had no clue what he was talking about. Clear wire does not supports the phone adapter behind a router. You must place the adapter in front of the router. I have clearwire and I only get about 3 bars and my speed is around 120k up and 650k down, so if I use the service then my internet connection would be crappy or my QOS on the Phone adapter would be crap. I would have to say even though I don't agree with cable companies sometimes but I have never had any bandwidth problem with Comcast. Clearwire likes to throttle my bandwidth so I know that is why my speed is the way it is.. |
