Most carriers are considering to run WiMAX on 700 or 2500, everyone that I know of is running it on 2500. If this article's testing relied on 3500 frequency, THEN IT'S COMPLETELY POINTLESS. 3500 is too high anyway, absolutely no building penetration unless you had a nuclear reactor powering it at the broadcast site. Heck, 2500 is pretty high, especially considering a lot of cellular networks run at 1900.

Real simple: Companies who use radio technology like WiMAX will have purchased that spectrum in that area. That company OWNS that spectrum and is allowed to broadcast whatever signal it likes in that spectrum. They may own a certain frequency(s) in Orlando, but different frequencies in Chicago. Just because WiMAX has been certified to work in a bunch of different frequencies, doesn't mean that it will be licensed by the company that uses it (i.e. Sprint & Clearwire) in that same band. I don't see how the FCC would allow that. If Sprint or Clearwire bought 2.5 GHz from the FCC, then they have the right to operate in that space... anyway GPS runs off of 1575.42, 1227.60, & 1381.05, WAYYY differently than anyone trying to mess with WiMAX.

If some satellite broadcasts in the 2.5GHz range and of course Sprint &/or Clearwire broadcast in a different range but their carriers SCREW UP and bleed over, then I would be concerned... but I doubt that Motorola and other companies providing the hardware will screw that up that bad.

This is just propaganda against WiMAX or someone without any knowledge read that WiMAX could theoretically operate in the same frequency space as common satellite frequencies and freaked out. Do some homework next time. Tards.

How again does this send a text message to your phone?

Is it random ads/texts?

This doesn't make sense to me.
