What is Wireless Internet? How does Wireless compare to DSL or T1?
Wireless Internet is an exciting technology, emerging over the last 2 years, which typically delivers DSL/Cable Modem quality Broadband Service. More formally referred to as “Fixed Wireless,” service is unrelated to the Internet access available on roaming devices, such as cell phones and pagers. Fixed wireless delivers Internet over high frequency microwave radio signals between the ISP’s tower and an antenna installed at your office or home. As discussed earlier, DSL is not available everywhere. T1, while commonly considered the best available, is accordingly much higher priced than everything else. Wireless offers access to many locations where DSL and Cable Modems are not yet available.
