Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access is the broadband Internet access version for the wireless connectivity level.
What became the world’s largest fully functional wireless broadband access network in Pakistan, provided by Motorola’s technology, is capable to enable portable connectivity with Wi-Fi hotspots linking to the Internet, a great alternative to DSL and cable, data and telecommunication services, as well as Internet connectivity as part of a business continuity plan.
WiMAX covers many miles and enables 10 Mbit/s speeds at 6 miles, or 10 Mbit/s over 2 km. The thing is that the more operating range it reaches, the higher the bit error rate increases.

A few days ago, Motorola introduced the first WiMAX USB adaptor for laptops, called USBw 100, which works on the 2.3 GHz, 2.5 GHz or 3.5 GHz bands, to deliver high-speed mobile broadband Internet acccess to portable computers.
It looks like a standard USB receiver and plugs into your laptop’s USB port.
Starting the fourth quarter of this year it comes in stores, allowing you to access this type of connectivity from anywhere, indoors and outdoors.

“Our new USBw 100 adaptor will let people enjoy desktop-like performance while on the go with their laptop computers by giving them wireless connectivity to a WiMAX service provider’s broadband wireless network,” said Charles Riggle, senior director of strategy and business development, WiMAX devices, Home & Networks Mobility. “With hundreds of thousands of commercial WiMAX CPEs shipped to date, the USBw 100 is the latest addition to our portfolio of award-winning devices that are providing fixed, nomadic and mobile connectivity to our WiMAX customers around the world.”
