That broadband is line of sight kind of fixed wireless. You put a pole on top of your house to receive.

Here is how it works

How It Works
Sprint Broadband Direct SM is based on an innovative technology called fixed wireless. Unlike mobile wireless,
fixed wireless uses a stationary digital transceiver at the home or business receiving the service. The ransceiver is pointed toward a radio transmission tower to send and receive a signal. The digital transceiver is a small, 13.5"x 13.5" diamond-shaped device, which is less than half the size of the common Direct Broadcast Satellite TV dish.
The radio transmission tower can send and receive high-speed Internet data to customers that are up to 35 miles away, making it the perfect service for nearly all customers in a metropolitan area, including suburban and rural areas that are too far away from the city to receive other broadband services. Service also will be available to inner city neighborhoods that have been excluded by other wired broadband providers.

Two-way wireless access means that you will not only have incredibly fast downloads, but, you will also be able to send and upload files much more quickly, with the ease of always being on.

The Sprint Broadband Direct network is a highly-reliable, highly-secure medium for data transmission as Sprint has exclusively-licensed digital frequency rights to its wireless spectrum.
