Top Tip: Is a wireless network slower?







Top Tip: Is a wireless network slower?

Top Tip: Is a wireless network slower? 03/06/2004 02:03 AM

I'm finally getting DSL :D and I'm curious as to whether I should hook up a wireless network for it instead of a conventional wired network? My dad has a new laptop with wireless capabilities and so he wants to work with that, but my concern is that it will slow down the speed of the DSL. Is wireless any slower than a wired network, and if it is, is it enough to make a difference to internet performance?

Fear Of An Open Wireless Network


Fear Of An Open Wireless Network 04/04/2005 06:22 AM
As mobile phones get more and more sophisticated for handling data, more people are waking up to reasons why the mobile data industry is still being held back, compared to the regular internet. Once again, it's a story about control. The mobile carriers still think they can control everything -- from the devices that people use to the applications, services and connections offered via those phones. The carriers will justify their position on each of these -- but people already know what to expect in buying a regular computer and getting on the regular internet -- and it doesn't involve having to buy a specific computer that's made to work with your ISP which has some special content and features, but which can't do everything that someone else's computer can. The computer/internet world works because it's not controlled by one party -- and the faster the carriers realize this, the faster they'll get wireless data adoption.

Sweden to Get Broadband Wireless Network

Using EU funds, TeliaSonera will help build a broadband wireless network in a region of Sweden that is without broadband access: The network will be built with so-called "pre-WiMax" equipment, or gear that hasn't been certified WiMax but may receive certification once that process begins. This is precisely the type of network that many experts say WiMax is ideal for--covering remote areas that aren't served by wired broadband. Ultimately, such networks could be built in developing nations but initially the networks and products may not be inexpensive enough to serve such markets....

Verizon Avenue launched a broadband wireless trial in Grundy, Va.: The network uses products from Alvarion that may be migrated to WiMax. Even though this is a small network in a rural community, it's a major coup for Alvarion and WiMax. Broadband wireless has largely been used by small startups or ISPs. A major operator like Verizon offers a significant stamp of approval, even if this is only a small trial aimed at learning more about the technology. This news also shows how much legitimacy a big name like Intel can add to a new technology. Realistically, broadband wireless technology that has been available for years could have worked just fine to serve this small community. But it took the buzz and marketing muscle around WiMax to attract the attention of a big player like Verizon....

07/28/2004 04:30 AM
You've got a smooth running Windows network. Now some exec decides that a Unix/Linux application has to be brought in as a business-critical platform. Not that they know it's a Unix/Linux app, just that they went to a conference and someone told them (or they saw a presentation) and it was just the application your organization needs to achieve some corporate goal. It just happens to only run on Solaris or Red Hat or SuSE or AIX. You know that it's fruitless to argue that introducing a non-Windows box will create some management issues, some technical issues and, possibly, some security issues. The only answer you'd get would be a directive to solve the issues.
