I use the broadband technology (sold by Navigo Broadband) for my home internet. Works pretty good !

clearwire is okay, if you have a good signal then they work well. I used them for a while when I had 3 bars I would get pretty good up/down (could play xbox live) but many times I was down to 1 bar and it was like dial up.

WiMax could be a big deal though, Intel just put 2 billion into helping Clearwire and Sprint build out their WiMax network.

I originally lived in a small town in a not so great neighborhood where I was probably the only Clearwire customer in a 1 mile radius. Three blocks away from the their tower and still only three bars and mediocre service. Other than that no problems. I recently moved to a much larger city, quite a bit further away from the tower and besides my reception being a very touchy (1/16 an inch turn in radius touchy) my service was pretty much the same. However, because I now live in a city where Clearwire has more customers my my bandwidth usage has popped on their radars twice and has been restricted. The first time it was a simple phone call and the restrictions were lifted, the second and I received a warning from their CSR that one more time and I would be dropped as a customer. Figuring that the simple solution would be to find my bandwidth limitations, I asked 'How much is too much?.' The CSR repeatedly denied having the ability to answer that question because it would be a privacy issue.
After 2 days of questioning I was finally able to get an answer from them, drum roll please.... no more than 2 kbps on the upload. I figured this only applied to peer to peer applications, so when I inquired more, I found that it's across the board. If you are an avid myspace user and you want to say, upload your hundred or so photos from your last camping trip, you eventually would be restricted and threatened to be dropped if continued. The premium package you pay for is only as good as the amount of customers in your area. At 2 kbps you are better off getting dial up.

I am completely satisfied with the broad band services I am using presently.But if your company is providing some better deal I can go ahead with that.
