We could have dreamed that 5 GHz was this “clean” spectrum that all our users were going to move to and simplify our life a bit!
but wait... the carriers have decided that they could use it too (ever heard of LTE-LAA?) Why would carriers stay in their contained and expensive Licensed Spectrum when they could use the Unlicensed one… https://gigaom.com/2015/01/05/ericsson-unleashes-lte-over-the-wi-fi-airwaves/ The theory is that LTE-LAA will play nice with Wi-Fi …. in theory! Can you hear the pitch already? Hello Mr CIO, we can take care of all your Wi-Fi needs for campus with a very reliable technology. No upfront cost to you, no Help Desk to deal with. Just a minimal monthly fee for all you users that are already our customers anyway. And we deal with DMCA... LTE-LAA sounds like that very polite good looking neighbor that moves next door and that eventually steels your spouse!
