AT&T Trials mobile WiMax in Nevada
AT&T, prior to being bought by SBC was pretty high on WiMAX, and they continue to play around with the technology. Now there is word of a trial in Nevada. Telephony Online says they are trialling pre-certification mobile WiMAX technology from Soma Networks in Pahrump, Nevada.
A source told me that the Soma gear being used in Nevada is not WiMax at all and the gear isn’t even software upgradable to WiMax like the Navini stuff that Bellsouth has deployed.
