said by wifi4milez  :
I am pretty confidant that wimax will come to market and will help to alleviate the always terrbible "last mile" problem many companies face.
That's the argument used by the WIMAX crowd that I have the most problems with.
In my own situation, I have a big last mile problem that WIFI doesn't solve. Unfortunately there nothing about WIMAX makes it perform any better. The problems are all NLOS. The terrain NLOS problems make distances longer than a few miles irrelevant. The "trees" NLOS problems aren't affected by WIMAX at all. The major part of any solution will have to be using lower frequencies (independent of the tech used on those frequencies). |
