How fast is NewryWAN ?
NewryWAN and wireless networks in general support speeds of 1Mbit-11Mbit/sec. depending on signal quality. This will increase to 54Mbit/sec with the new 802.11g standard, although it hasn’t been formally agreed upon yet and exists in a draft format. If you can receive a good signal you can probably connect at 11Mbit/sec, but the speed will decrease in stages if the signal is weak. Even the lowest speed of 1Mbit/sec is quite usable for internet access and other services. For comparison, a typical broadband (ADSL) internet connection is 512K/sec or 0.5Mbit/sec, so you would be getting twice this speed at the lowest setting !
