Residents in rural locations may find it difficult to get high speed internet access through methods such as cable and DSL. The necessary infrastructure for these technologies just does not exist in these locations. However Deebo Samuel 49ers Jersey , in recent times there have been great advances in wireless communication technologies. These technologies now enable internet users in remote areas to connect by wireless means to a Wireless ISP (WISP).
When internet use for home users became widespread most people used dial up modems to access the network. It could take several hours to download a large patch to a program, or a large file, but now the internet operates at very fast (broadband) data rates for most users. People can now rapidly download large movie files Nick Bosa 49ers Jersey , large programs, and play online games requiring fast data transfers to and from the net. All these applications rely on broadband communications between the user at home, and his ISP (Internet Service Provider).
The broadband data rates which are now achieved for most users rely on the infrastructure of the phone companies and the cable companies. Unfortunately some people cannot benefit from that infrastructure because they live in remote or rural locations. The low density of population has caused cable companies to neglect those areas. The long distances from homes to the local telephone central office (exchange) means that phone network broadband technology such as ADSL does not work well.
This has caused large parts of the rural population to become excluded from high speed internet Solomon Thomas 49ers Jersey , and from the applications which that technology has made possible.
However, recently there have been great advances in wireless technologies. Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs) have been set up to exploit the opportunities, and to bring high speed net access to remote communities. Current estimates in the US are that three million users access the internet through a WISP Dante Pettis 49ers Jersey , and about one hundred of these ISPs have been registered at the FCC (Federal Communications Commission).
The wireless connection from user to ISP is made by a radio link from the user’s home to the ISP’s transmission tower. Most likely the user will have his receiving equipment fitted high up on his residence, on an outside wall or on the chimney. This is needed to achieve good reception as the transmission tower can be a long distance away. The quality of reception is very important as it directly affects the data transfer rates which can be achieved between user and ISP.
Within the home the user will probably use a normal WiFi or Ethernet network to connect his PC or PCs to the transmission equipment. Although this might sound complicated a good wireless ISP will provide plenty of support to help get their customers up and running.
The wireless technologies already exist allowing many new users to experience broadband internet access via wireless ISPs (WISPs). WISPs are also expanding into areas which still lack coverage. Another benefit of the technology is that internet access can be rapidly deployed into areas which have suffered infrastructure damage from hurricanes and other natural disasters.
