Here is something nice . http://www.techspot.com/news/46909-broadcom-introduces-first-gigabit-speed-8... -- GG

More about the standard here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11ac Though I would wonder what the range is , and the maximum bandwidth that can go into an AP. So far, it appears, the maximum bandwidth that an AP can take has been the limiting factor of deployment of 802.11 x APs in urban settings, though I wonder if deployment of many APs would not have been an option. Maybe ISPs aren't interested at all?

have a look a this ...these guys have been having this for a while , they have a supplier in Uganda the best thing about this is that you can have a cloud access control system you can set them up all over the country and all a user needs is to connect to the network and log on http://www.pepwave.com/solutions/citywide-wifi/ On Tue, Jan 10, 2012 at 10:25 AM, Dennis Kioko <dmbuvi@gmail.com> wrote:

LTE has to go through a political sieve, then get regurgitated through business use cases, then we get to talk about it for a while before it gets commercially implemented, or someone very high up races it through all the hurdles we foresee. I still bet on wifi for low cost widespread connectivity distribution of Internet services. Gitau Sent from my iPad On 16 Jan 2012, at 16:39, John Doe <fivepings@gmail.com> wrote:

I still believe there is a nice business case for free wifi for critical services and some internet sites. Imagine a cop stops you and you have free access to some legal document that explains exactly what you need to do and if it warrants it there's a bunch of lawyers accessible for a quick chat. Imagine cameras riding free on that network and all of us can access them (the ones mounted on public spaces). WIFI is dirt cheap. even cheaper if you design your own hardware and controller, its merchant silicon, that means I can buy it, design it, build it, again easy to do by someone with time and the necessary motivation. Even cheaper if its communally run and owned. Either way its possible and yes, I tend to get excited by this sort of thing, and will probably see such a project through soon.

Interesting. There's an operator in the UK, I forget the name who is offering homeowners free wifi in exchange for putting an access point in their homes in order to build a public network. Its hugely successful. There's also the case for wifi offload for Telco's. Personally I hate wifi cause of interference and instability. But I guess these are fixable issues. public wifi and its sister wifi on steroids are not as dead as we may like to think IMO. On 1/16/12, John Gitau <jgitau@gmail.com> wrote:
I still believe there is a nice business case for free wifi for critical services and some internet sites.
Imagine a cop stops you and you have free access to some legal document that explains exactly what you need to do and if it warrants it there's a bunch of lawyers accessible for a quick chat. Imagine cameras riding free on that network and all of us can access them (the ones mounted on public spaces).
WIFI is dirt cheap. even cheaper if you design your own hardware and controller, its merchant silicon, that means I can buy it, design it, build it, again easy to do by someone with time and the necessary motivation.
Even cheaper if its communally run and owned.
Either way its possible and yes, I tend to get excited by this sort of thing, and will probably see such a project through soon.

Atleast in Kenya we know LTE has someone high up "racing it through the hurdles" :-)...makes me wonder what is happening with wazi wifi... But wifi seems to be stirring back to life. This will be interesting to watch.

LTE has to go through a political sieve, then get regurgitated through business use cases, then we get to talk about it for a while before it gets commercially implemented, or someone very high up races it through all the hurdles we foresee. I still bet on wifi for low cost widespread connectivity distribution of Internet services.
