Your dialup modem connections connect at a maximum of 53 thousand bits
per second. In addition, analog dialup connections are VERY inefficient and
often have to resend data because of telephone line interference. In
testing, we limited one of our wireless nodes to 53kbps and it was over
5 times faster than an analog 56k dialup connection. This is because the
wireless is very efficient and does not have the same errors that a dialup
line has.
Our wireless radios connect to our cell sites at 11 mbps, 45mbps, and
100 mbps (11,000 kbps, 45,000kbps, and 100,000kbps). The service plan
you have from your ISP will determine your basic connection rate. All
connections are "burstable". What this means is that if your plan calls
for 256k of wireless service, you will have a minimum of 256k of bandwidth.
If you also have our Morewave burst service, you may be able to get
speeds of up to 5 mbps!! Burstable bandwidth means that you are not
paying for a lot more speed than you need for short periods of time.
Your speed is regulated by our bandwidth manager. This means that at any
time you can increase your basic transfer rate by contacting us. Your
speed can be increased almost immediately without additional equipment
or installation fees, or on-site visits.
