I'm looking for information on the various ads I've seen for wireless ISP's (mostly California). The claim is T-1 speeds for app. $50.00/month. My questions are: 1) What equipment is used to reliably offer point to multipoint? From what little I can find Spread Spectrum appears to be the best technology alternative from companies such as WaveAccess. 2) How does it avoid interference from trees, buildings etc? 3) What's the cost for the base equipment and customer units? 4) For those that have used it, what has the reliability been and the effects of weather and other outside interference? 5) Do the end users have to put up exterior antennas or is the equipment strong enough to stand on it's own?
