Re: 2.5/1.3??!
said by NewLife  :
Hell yeah. Thats what I am talking about. 2.5 down may not be quite as fast as I'd like but that 1.3 upload is sweet. Hamradios, we don't need no stinking ham radios what we need is bandwidth baby.
Great. Just what we need... Another ham hater.
Just try to complete your upload when the neighborhood ham starts operating, or CBer, or any transmission within the passband of BPL. Then you'll be on terminal hold with your ISP/utility company to complain; after all that, you still will have no resolution, nor will you have any upload(nor download, for that matter). Your ISP/utility will not be able to stop the RF in your neighborhood from happening. In fact, if your operations cause interference to us, your pipe will be choked or taken down altogether.
Can't we just stop hating and baiting the hams?

I eat ham at all holiday dinners with my family. I wonder if that makes me a cannibal in some way?
I really don't mean to "Rodney King" all over the place. This BPL/radio people war is just going too far. Thanks for lightening the forum a little bit...:D

Digital technology and computers are the rage in ham radio!
Mesh networking on 802.11x under Part 97 rules....Wireless mobile ethernet on 1.2 GHz with DStar, Perceptually coded voice with data interleaved with soft panel interfacing to you PDA or laptop with DStar, ad infinitum.
Yes, there is still the SSB/Voice only Hams, but a lot of new blood is infusing the hobby with programming, hardware, and integration skills.

I AGREE. every one of these BPL stories after the first few posts becomes a ham/antiham squabble.

FWIW i think these speeds were obtained under VERY OPTIMAL CONDITIONS. under real world use you'd probably see levels of service equivelent to charters bronze package(512/128)
