Need Some Info on Dialog WiMAX

[mshassy]

Hello guys,
I'm thinking of getting a Dialog WiMAX connection ( Officenet 2mbps) as my current connection ( SLT 512kbps) started to suck like hell.

So I would like to know few things about Dialog WiMAX from a current user or someone who got experience.

I would like to know...

The average Download and Upload Speeds,
What are the equipments they going to install in my house,
The normal rental with gov taxes etc

and specially is there a download limit like SLT now applying for all their new packages?

Thanks!

1.you will get an average download speed around 1.5 - 2mbps and upload speed around 400 - 500kbps

2. they install a WiMAX antenna and your home must be within the limit (generally around 1.5 km from the tower, depends on the tower capabilities) and your WiMAX antenna must be able to see the tower from your roof top.
There's no any modems needed, you'll get an ethernet connection which acts as a modem. (you can connect it to a router or directly to your PC)

3. Rental: Rs.5000.00

TAX rate: 15.46%
TAX amount for Rs.5000 = Rs.773.00

Total Rental: Rs.5000 + 773 = Rs.5773.00

Currently there are no any limits

oh thanks for your info bro

one last question
What kind of a cable coming from the antenna to inside the house?
is it a LAN cable or a normal telephone line?
because right now I have a normal telephone line straight to my computer
(Which took a lota strength to fix to the wall)

Coz I dont wanna have anymore nail on my walls
