That’s what I meant, they piggy backed on the wifi chipset market... Gino A. Villarini g...@aeronetpr.com Aeronet Wireless Broadband Corp. 787.273.4143

I'd argue that the existing Wi-Fi scale allowed Ubiquity to do what they do. Ergo, the scale happened before them and that's what allowed their commodity and disruptive pricing to work. Ubiquity is killing the res WISP market, but its total volume registers not even a blip in terms of total Wi-Fi units sold globally.

I think that there are some common bands that would allow a wide market, 2.4 ghz, 3.x ghz and 5.x ghz are fairly widespread, the challenge is to SCALE as you say... that is something that UBNT achieved using wifi chipsets. The way I see its is that you might need to think out of the box to achieve multicarrier aggregation WITH either cheap wifi chipsets ore something similar Gino A.

That'd be one sexy product Gino. Two obvious challenges: 1. Lack of international unity in spectrum used for BWA, which hurts the ability to get to commodity pricing. Of course, this is already being done with 802.11n though, which supports both 2.4 GHz (802.11g compatible) and 5 GHz. 2. The cellular guys benefit from S C A L E. Last I heard there were over 1B cell phones in use today. That's some scale man and enables cost to drive W A Y down. Now you are seeing SDR radios (I know, that's redundant, but sounds funky if I leave out "radio") hitting the market for our space, the latest being our 3.65 COMPACT. This at least enables some strong investment protection. I remember Vanu Bose championing them way back in to 2002, but it takes time and mass before things get to market. We can only do it because the costs of FPGAs have gone way down. Not low enough to use in CPE, but low enough to go into base stations. It's good though for you guys to constantly apply pressure.

I would like to see a Multiband Mimo PMP System similar to what is being developed in the LTE-Advanced RF protocol, where a BaseStation can use various spectrum bands to talk to CPEs… Imaging having an AP with multiple RF Sections using 2.4,3.x,5.x and aggregate all bands in a single Layer 1 medium to the CPE…also could split the downlink/uplink in various bands…youll need sync, plus some special sauce to organize Spectrum availability and Identify external interference.. but all that could be achieve out of the AP in a Cloud controller… So whos the taker?
