   As I site here waiting for our network's  
internet backbone to get back up, I cant help 
but me motivated to write about my only 
complaint for the wireless technologies. 

  Here at our company (www.centralsystems.com) 
we have a wireless T1 that is T3 burstable on 
a OC3 connection. Which rarely goes down, except 
of course when human error is involved, and the  
jackass's that run the place screw something up, 
or "accidentaly" un-route our IP's.  

(To clarify, they dont know shit about it. They 
contract people out with the cheapest bid to do 
the work for them, and they just make the profit 
and put on a show like they know what they are 
talking about. I watched the "co-owner" try and 
PICO rc.d. Laugh at that why dont you.) 

  As I was saying, they only complaint I have 
is about the "hop" idea. Its kinda like a network 
with BNC connectors. If one gets disconnected, the  
rest of the nodes from there on are disconnected as 
well.  

  Well, this has happened to us today. A amp has 
lost 60% of its power on one of their towers (or hop), 
and hasn't technically disconnected or dropped us.  
It is just that the signal is so weak, that I cant 
even get a web page to load, and they are having 
ping reply's with 4-5 second responses. 

  Dont get me wrong, wireless is probably the most 
dependable service that exists. The only problem I 
can depict is the hops. But you cant judge perfection, 
correct? 

So, 

PROGNOSIS ANALYSIS: 

         if $ISP = $SMART 
         then 
         $WIRELESS = $GOOD 
         if $ISP =/= $SMART 
         then 
         $OWNER = $NEWJOB
