Dave, I also have Wi-Max to run most of the computers but I have found that even though I have 5 meg service the WI-Max is all over the ball park on latency as the sector I am on is over played. During a contest and for remote operation I have found this unacceptable. The DSL I have is 1.5 meg up and down every time and all the time and with Remote Rig allows perfect 35 WPM keying from the remote op on the mainland (in NYC)
I tried two different wireless ISP's before DSL came to my area. I found out that the wireless ISP's only had a single T1 line to the internet, so it didn't matter what speed the wireless link was, there would be bottleneck at the head end. The DSL also has this issue to a certain extent, but it has worked much better for remote station control. Rick N6RK _________________ Topband Reflector
