Wi-Max is alive and well in Canada
August 1, 2007 from a subscriber of 180 Systems’ News and Views – “Wi-Max is alive and well in Canada. Rogers calls it their portable internet. Bell calls it their wi max. I have it at my cottage now (Muskoka).
It is slower than cable in the city, but it is 25 - 35 times faster than dial up. I regularly get download speeds of 1.7MB and upload of 256KB. For reference, cable in the city is about 7MB download and 512KB upload. Not bad for coming in off of the cell towers. And, it has been 100% reliable for the last 7 weeks since I installed it.”
