Hi Frank - "I believe Peter has stated that when it comes to backhaul, WiMAX has nothing over directional 802.11 alternatives, or at least implied that the choice goes to WiFi, when viewing the tradeoffs." More or less, you're right. The discussion was back here... Message 23204696 Note Peter's comment about Moto's Canopy: "They are starting to experience 5.8 GHz deployments where Canopy (Hiperlan2-like) interferes with their systems" I'm not sure how nicely the different RF alternatives will play with each other, and I'm not speaking as a WiMax advocate. I was just suggesting that unless a backhaul alternative is clearly superior to WiMax, it may not be justifiable from a complexity/cost perspective. Maybe Peter will demonstrate that such alternatives (including WiFi, and beyond Moto's proprietary solutions) are contemplated, or already exist. I'm not sure the point is proven yet, but I'd be happy to see it settled. Jim
