Introduction:
Fixed wireless broadband should not be confused with text-only or limited-graphics wireless Internet services aimed at handheld mobile phones and PDAs. After a fixed-base wireless broadband signal reaches your computer, your Internet experience is just as rich in content and about as speedy as wired services such as cable modem and DSL. Essentially, fixed wireless broadband Internet access is a form of cable modem service that substitutes microwave receivers or transceivers for the HFC cabling of the cable modem network. Similar to cable modems, fixed wireless broadband is an always-on service.
