All this wireless technology must have some horrible effect on the human body at some point down the line....
[/.]12.5 Gbps Wireless tested by Europe

| "Science news reports that in Europe, a Breakthrough For Post-4G Communications has been announced. A public-private consortium known as IPHOBAC, has been developing new communications technology that is near commercialization now. From the article, "With much of the mobile world yet to migrate to 3G mobile communications, let alone 4G, European researchers are already working on a new technology able to deliver data wirelessly up to 12.5Gb/s. "The technology â€" known as 'millimetre (mm)-wave' or microwave photonics â€" has commercial applications not just in telecommunications (access and in-house networks) but also in instrumentation, radar, security, radio astronomy and other fields." That's great for Europe, but here in the US, I suspect that patent interests will try to stymie the adoption of such technology until they can get exclusive control of it here." |

In Australia I get a max of 7.2mbps connections.

I get 3 megs on a night but only 2 megs on a day, unfortunately.
12.5 Gbps would be amazing, I can imagine BT, the country's main monopoly on telecommunications would try to stop this. If BT didn't manage to do so, the dinosaur would die.

Any competition = BT failure.

I never believe the snake oil merchants pushing super fast wireless braodband and theoretical max speeds. If they ever see those speeds I suspect they'll go hand in hand with a 3000+ ping and patchy coverage

Oh geez, a lot of people on this thread have been seriously jaded by their ISP

Not really, we've had 3/3.5g in Ireland for the past couple of years and my own personal experience of it is....

Well to be kind, it's good for web browsing and that's about it.
I had a plan to stick a PC in my car with HSDPA broadband for net radio but it's just not stable enough.

im in longford an use a HSDPA usb 3g modem, an i don't just web browse with it, i play cod4 online (ping 100 - 130) <--- perfectly fine, on a good day, upto 200 on a bad day, not so good bit laggy but playable.
granted it can be a major pain sometimes an feel like smashing the modem sometimes (i did that once too lol). but overall their good.

That's a great ping for 3g. I'm in North Dublin and it's impossible to get a stable signal on it . My brother in law is constantly annoying me to "fix his internet". I keep telling him- The internets not broke, O2 is

(Could just be in a bad area but the mast is only about 300ft away from his house with a clear line of sight) I've never seen a ping lower than 200ms on it

He sticks with it though as he doesn't want to pay line rental for a phone he won't use- He just wants broadband. Makes sense, but as you said the stability/ping is head wrecking at times.

We have a microwave link here in the office, about 1.0 Gbps. It's only used as a backup now but used to be in production- It worked great until the birds started migrating in the winter

lol.
