The holy grail would be the ability to modulate a signal and receive it
correctly in the face of withering interference.
The GPS system accomplishes that through the technique of encoding the
data within "pseudo noise". The only problem being that GPS data is
relatively static compared to what we deal with.

I think folks without deep experience in either 1) operating a WISP or

of the general population) somehow think that Moore’s Law applies to
wireless.
The only way to scale this this stuff in a way approximating Moore’s
Law is to just keep adding cell/ap sites.
I read a book back in 1990 that outlined this problem for the nascent
cell phone industry. The book is still spot on.

Is it just me, or is no one realizing that we are still not that far
from 2005 with wireless.
Yes, we have 300-1Gbps capable radios.
But they trade that for larger channel allocations and even more
signal to noise requirements.
But the spectrum allocations haven’t changed enough to use these new
features to their fullest in a radio dense environment.
When doing cost analysis in my area last year for wireless I realized
I had to forklift upgrade most of my network, and build towers out in
a half mile range.
This was to get the 30Mbps plan rates to really work.
The costs were skyrocketing because of all the towers and sectors.
I think the real winners of late are still the rural and low density
wireless provider domains.
They are the ones with clean enough spectrum to cost this competitively.
