Intel modifies Wi-Fi to add mileage | |

Intel has come up with a form of Wi-Fi that would let a laptop in San Francisco connect to the Internet from a base station in San Jose, Calif. And there would still be about 10 miles of wiggle room to spare. Academics and researchers from the company's labs have created a system that lets Wi-Fi signals, which ordinarily carry a few hundred feet, instead travel 100 kilometers, or more than 60 miles, said Eric Brewer, director of Intel Research Berkeley, a lab owned by the company that cooperates on research projects with the University of California at Berkeley. "It is regular Wi-Fi hardware but with modified software," he said. | ||

| "The system isn't designed for the U.S. or Europe.". Thanks for nothing then. |

| So your saying the teachnology is useless? I wonder how this compares to winMAX 802.16? |

| #2: If one is not allowed to use a technology, then it is useless to that person. Why give an example of sending a signal from a laptop in San Francisco to San Jose, only to close the article that the tecnology is not for the US? |
