RE: NLOS vendors in the greater Seattle area?

Don't we all wish we could get 100mbit+ NLOS?  :)

Non-line of sight technologies are not going to get you over a couple
megabits.  Even the Wimax forum admits that NLOS OFDM will maybe yield
5mbps in the best of NLOS conditions.  Its not too hard to bounce off a
few points to obtain end-to-end LOS within this area.  However, this may
prove to be more expensive than a leased line.

If you are looking for a short range, high bandwidth solution, you may
want to investigate metro ethernet or dark fiber within the Bellevue
area.  Its inexpensive and fast --- we do layer 2 point-to-point metro
ethernet between a couple buildings in downtown bellevue.
