Ok :-)
Problem with wireless is one of bandwidth, to give everyone good quality
access, you need zillions of access points. The larger the number of access
points, the lower the power you can make them, and the more you fit in an
area without interference.
I think the best thing for Western Power etc to do, since they already own
the right-of-way on power poles and trenches, is to put ordinary 802.11 APs
on every second power pole or whatever and deliver broadband over that.
Cheers,
Gavin.
