Re: It's a bad idea
Since WiMax will be run in a licensed part of the spectrum...you can up the power a lot more to deal with obstructions...now I'm not saying this would make it be able to penetrate say a mountain....but you can get further penetration into a home.
As for geography...WiMax isn't a P-t-P solution...its a solution for the end user. I would certainly hope if a WISP were to use WiMax they don't think they can just drop a base station into a location and service a 30 mile radius.
As for weather...you'd be pretty surprised at how well wireless when setup properly works in inclement weather...I don't think there'd be an issue this side of a hurricane/tornado/something of that magnitude.
Properly installed systems have fade margins for weather built in. |
