How does Wireless Broadband from Cirra Networks compare to Satellite internet?
Wireless broadband is sometime confused with satellite because they are both forms of wireless communication. The difference is that Cirra Networks uses a land based microwave radio system that uses short-range links is comparable to wired links like DSL so the performance stays high. satellite links have a lengthy delay due to the roughly 23,000 mile round trip to geosynchronous satellites. This latency causes a drop in performance on many online games, and other two-way interactive applications.
