Looks like there is an Aironet broadband product with a range of 25 miles
I suppose this is an ideal condition spec )

Cisco appears to be positioning this as an alternative to land lines for
business and ISP's. I did not do a thorough read, but it looks to me that
this is not really a mobile user solution at this time. I may be wrong.
Looks interesting, though. I can see a lot of opportunity here, particularly
in areas where the telcos don't plan on introducing new wire, let alone
fiber, anytime soon. Some clever company might just find a good niche in
some of our more rural areas.

Subject: Re: Aironet vs. VPN
How far are they roaming? Aironet is a LAN solution. You can only go
approximately 150 feet, depending on obstacles.
I might be missing something, but VPNs and Aironet don't even seem to
belong in the same category. Maybe if you tell us more about your
application, we can provide more info.
