Wimax Install

Saturday, October 3rd, 2009

today I helped a neighbour get and install wimax at his home

we waited about an hour and a half at verat.net offices since it was Saturday and only one worker was in the office dealing with customers

basically they ask you to sign a contract for up to 12 months of service at about 2300 RSD and about 1500 RSD for the wimax device

when I got to my neighbour with the device I installed Ubuntu Linux and everything worked out of the box

but only the test account has been enabled on the device with the rate limited to 5 kilobytes/second

after reading the manual, I put username/password and everything worked, he got his 2 megabits of downlink :)

I’m glad wimax has finally come here, we needed it since the government doesn’t want to invest into new wires, they just suck out the profit from existing telephone bills
