Things are starting to move along. We have completed our site surveys and we are soon going to go live with our beta test network. It’s been an interesting process, gathering information, planning coverage areas, learning about the differences between wired and wireless services. We have extensive experience with voice, data and security (and a whole lot more) in the wired world. Wireless adds a new dimension. It’s not rocket science, but it’s not trivial either.
Things have changed on the ‘Net since we first got involved. The ‘Net is always evolving and the ways people use the ‘Net evolve as well. Nowadays there is a lot of video streaming (Netflix and others), gaming (Xbox, WII), voice (VOIP, etc) and these protocols sometimes present challenges when designing a carrier class network. P2P file sharing and other programs also contribute to making life “interesting”. Each of these opportunities must be met with the best solution possible while maintaining the lowest cost, most reliable network. We have the expertise and experience to do so.
