Hi all,
We are located in Hungary and the biggest cable (DSL) internet provider released its brand new packages. Just giving an example, they can provide 2.5 Mbit/s for about 20 USD. (This price was the 1.25 Mbit/s package's price previously, just in case.) Being a small wifi (5GHz) provider, we have a package of 1.5 Mbit/s for 32 USD. The problem is that how can we compete with this price and bandwidth? If we are decreasing prices, we will have a profit loss. If we are making a bandwidth increase, we can't provide it, especially in case of point-multipoint links. What would be your strategy or even ideas?
Ps: Is there any outstanding development in case of wifi technology or so. It is really an urgent need in order to be able to be up to cable providers.
Hope we do not have to wait for long for this novelty such as wimax. On the other way, 802.11n standard is _STILL_ not available in Mikrotik OS. Moreover this works only on 2.4 GHz yet that is fairly overladen and also haven't seen any outdoor solutions of it at all.
Any help, idea, suggestion, solution is greatly appreciated.
