Anyone have user experience with Wi-max or other wisp? The dsl service I'm routing from is only running about 200k. Hell, that's not even fast enough for u-tube. I have to wait until the video downloads. Boo! So I'm think about wisp/wi-max for portability. I would do a cell card, but the two-year contracts are not attractive. The way I move around, and the rural areas I like (where not all carriers cover), seems like wisp/wi-max might be better. -J |

My dealings with the ClearWire staff have been pretty impressive. If their network can do what they claim, I'd take a peek at it |

Clear Wire is not available around Spokane. However, there are a few other WISP companies. Good write-up here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiMAX If these providers could quit bickering back and forth, we would be more advanced on this and BPL. |

I tried it out and bailed out of it...They claimed coverage in a few areas I wanted it; none actually had the coverage. |

FYI, Clearwire does a lot of selective rate-limiting and port filtering. |

Then I don't think I'll get it. I will probably go for the big wire. I've had it before & it is fast. You know if you can stream music and u-Tube at the same time, that's pretty quick. |
