Warning: 10 Reasons You Could Get Hooked on WiMax Internet

By Melissa Delaney of WirelessInternetReviews.com

Yes. Heed the warning. Simply reading the following information could be enough to get you hooked before you even experience it first hand. This is the data access you have dreamed of and hoped for.

  1. Higher Speeds – 6 Mbps for residential use and 4 Mbps for mobile users is what they are predicting for the initial WiMax speeds and those will increase as the Wimax ‘cells’ decrease in size. Highspeed connections for everyone with a few miles of the transmitter.
  2. Increased Data Capabilities – More efficient, faster, high quality delivery of data means that high level data content like video streaming, gaming, etc. will flow unhampered for all the users of the WiMax system.
  3. Higher Quality – The small cell concept of the WiMax internet service allows for much higher quality data delivery on a consistent basis for its subscribers. Watching movies and television on your computer devices will be better than ever.
  4. Lower Prices – The cost of delivering internet service through the WiMax system is expected to be significantly lower due to lower equipment cost and competition between equipment providers for the widespread installation of cells.
  5. Wireless Access – Wireless access to the internet from anywhere in your home or business. A great convenience for all consumers. No need to choose between cable or DSL or satellite.
  6. Rural Access – Rural users will now have an affordable means of accessing the internet at high speeds in locations where that was not economically feasible previously.
  7. Expanded Access – Many areas that previously had limited access to the internet, especially at high speeds will be able to gain that access through WiMax.
  8. NLOS Service – No Line Of Sight Service is one of the reasons that WiMax is able to provide the kind of wireless access to the internet described here. Cellphones will lose signal when they lose their ‘line of sight’ to cell towers. This has very little impact on WiMax.
  9. Community Wide – WiMax is designed to provide community wide internet service. This would mean improved internet service for the entire community, schools, libraries, businesses, non-profits and individuals.
  10. Quick Expansion – Reduced costs will also mean greater profitability for the ISP’s delivering the service. Greater profitabilities will mean faster expansion of the services to communities.

Are you hooked yet? You should be. When will it be coming to you? I can’t answer that question, but keep your eyes open for more in the news in the not too distant future.
