1. When will the Wireless Internet products be available?

The Wireless Internet services will be live and available once all testing has been completed, the Wireless Corporation public shell has been funded to launch the IPO (Initial Public Offering) and, obviously, once the Corporation's staff infrastructure has been put in place.

No exact date or precise time-frame can be provided when dealing with hardware, software, and programming, and given the impact the Wireless services are going to have on other large or major communication-based Companies, launch delay due to sabotage can not be ruled out; just the same as a delay could also take place due to a natural disaster.

In any event, the Updates page will announce any and all dates and time-frames as they are presented and authorized for release from the Wireless Corporation.

2. How does this Wireless Internet compare to other Wireless services?

This Wireless Internet service does not compare to any other Wireless service.

The Wireless Corporation has developed a completely new Wireless Fidelity ("WiFi" or Wi-Fi") technology that broadcasts the signal far beyond any other technology available today, and it is mobile.

Other existing WiFi and WiMax wireless Internet services are NOT mobile, in that the user must stay connected to the "HotSpot" and stay in the area that they're receiving the signal from.

Once other Companies figure out how the Wireless corporation is doing this, it will take them a minimum of 3 years and many billions of dollars to implement their own technology that comes anywhere close to what the Wireless Corporation has developed.

However, once the Wireless services are live and available to the general public, comparison charts will be made available to show how vastly superior this new technology is over all the other communication-based companies out there.

3. Where will the Wireless Internet first go live in Canada?

Specific areas and/or time-frames for the wireless services to go live in Canada have not been provided as of yet.

However, mountainous terrain testing is already scheduled for the Province of British Columbia, and given that the Wireless Corporation has commented that all 50 US States will receive the Wireless services within about a year from its initial launch, we assume it is a safe bet to think that all coastline cities and areas of British Columbia will see the Wireless services first, and in order to service Alaska.

4. Where will the Wireless Internet first go live in the USA?

The Wireless Corporation anticipates that complete USA-wide coverage of all 50 States, and all of the Canadian Provinces, will take approximately one (1) year to complete from the date the services are first launched.
 
The initial launch of the Wireless services will take place simultaneously in the USA states of Washington, California, and Texas, and will quickly branch out to all other States, beginning with rural or low-population areas, then closing in coverage and service on all major cities.
 
With much of the $13-billion dollar financial backing allocated for existing tower acquisition, and given that it only takes an average of 12-days to build a 350-foot tower to service a 30-mile radius on relatively flat terrain, North American-wide service (blanketed coverage) being completed within one (1) year of launch is a very real projection.

5. What countries will the Wireless products be available in?

The initial Countries to receive the Wireless products are the United States and Canada.
 
Once North American-wide service (blanketed coverage) is complete, the next Countries the Wireless Corporation will look to service will be Australia and New Zealand, then Countries in Asia, such as Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, China, etc.
 
When the aforementioned areas are serviced, it is anticipated that the Wireless services will then reach throughout the European Union from both the Atlantic and Asian areas simultaneously.
 
All other locations worldwide will then begin to receive the wireless services (except for those listed as embargoed Countries on the USA deny list) until global coverage is achieved.

6. What signal frequency does the Wireless Internet product work on?

The frequencies the wireless services are broadcast on are held as confidential information by the Wireless Corporation at this time.

However, we are able to disclose that there are three (3) separate frequencies that broadcast the wireless signal, all of which hand-off to each other, to provide the end user with the strongest signal and connection available at all times.

7. How well will the Wireless Internet products work in mountains?

The minimum signal strength distance target in mountainous terrain is no less than sixteen (16) miles.

Signal strength in mountainous terrain depends on several factors, primarily to do with possible interference’s from dense metals, iron ore, and granite (a naturally radioactive stone) in any given area.

Mountainous terrain signal testing is scheduled for undisclosed 2007/8 dates in the USA States of Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and the Province of British Columbia, Canada.

Once the testing has been completed in these areas the advertised signal strength distance in mountainous terrain will be able determined.

Once the testing has been fully completed this FAQ will be updated.

Update: ALL mountainous terrain testing has been successfully completed. Although signal strength distance exceeds the 16 mile target distance - the precise figures have not been officially released.

8. Will the Wireless Corporation’s "Services" interfere with any television, radio, satellite, phone, wireless microphone, or "white space" signals that are already in use?

No! The frequencies in use with the Wireless Corporation's Services will not cause any interference to any public airwaves already in use.

9. What will I need in order to use the Wireless Internet on my laptop?

The Wireless Corporation will provide the modem equipment for residential and office connection of desktop computers at no charge, which will allow for laptops to connect in the home or office by using the USB or Ethernet adaptor port on the laptop.

Connecting a laptop outside of the home or office will also be able to be done by using the Wireless Corporation's universal laptop adaptor, which will incur a one (1) time fee or charge.

The cost of the Wireless Corporation's universal laptop adaptor has yet to be determined, but is expected to be in the price-range of similar laptop adaptors available for other laptop services today.

10. How fast are T1, T2, and T3 Wireless Internet connections?

These numbers indicate how much data can be sent and received per second, which are best explained through comparisons.

Using a dial-up modem transfers data at an average rate of about 30,000 bits per second (30 kilobits per second), whereas a T1 line can transmit 1.536 megabits per second (1.536 Mbps > 1,536 kb’s > 1,536,000 bps), providing service up to 60 times faster than a traditional modem.

Having a T3 connection, which can transfer data up to 44.736 megabits per second, is equal to having seven (7) T2 connections or twenty-eight (28) T1 connections.

The European Union uses a different carrier line called the E1, E2 and E3.

In any event, for what costs around $500.00 to $700.00 per month for a true T1 connection today, you will only be paying $19.95 for the Wireless Corporation's T1 service.

11. Is there a difference between the Wireless IP Telephony and VoIP?

Yes there is a difference, however, IP Telephony is the same as VoIP (Voice-over Internet Protocol) in that they both operate by sending data via the Internet.

IP Telephony generally uses a telephone to connect to the Internet and can connect to other telephones, whereas VoIP uses a Web-based interface that enables users to attend an online conference room or chat room setting.

In essence, the only real difference is whether you will be speaking to others on your telephone via the Internet or speaking to others using your computer's sound card.

12. How much are the Wireless services going to cost?

The projected monthly fee for the T1 Wireless Internet service is anticipated and has been stated to be $19.95 per month.

The IP Telephony service is anticipated and has been stated to be $9.95 per month.

The T3 Wireless Internet service is anticipated to be in the range of $70.00 to $80.00 per month.

There are no anticipated setup, installation, or equipment fees. Discounts may be may available on a prepay or contract basis, but are yet to be disclosed by the Wireless Corporation, or if there will be any such discount packages available.

13. What is the stock symbol and name of the Wireless Corporation?

The Wireless Corporation's stock symbol, and the Stock Exchange it will be trading on, will not be released until the IPO (Initial Public Offering) is offered to the general public.

14. How can I invest in the Wireless Internet project?

With seven private investment bankers secured in 2003, no further funding is being sought after or accepted.

Once the IPO (Initial Public Offering) is offered to the general public - notification will be posted on the Updates page that Stock in the Wireless Corporation is available for purchase.

15. Can I speak to a live person about the Wireless Internet project?

The Wireless Corporation will not provide any method of contact until the wireless services go live, the Wireless Corporation's staff infrastructure has been trained and put in place, and the IPO (Initial Public Offering) has been made available.

Once these steps have been achieved, the Wireless Corporation anticipates having in the neighborhood of 150,000 employees, and will provide live telephone support as a method of contact - just like any other major Corporation does.

At this time, and under direction and order from the Wireless Corporation, any and all inquiries sent to the Corporate Reseller will be directed back to these FAQs until the Wireless Corporation opens channels of communication to the general public.

16. Is there any current support for the Branded ISPs that have pre-registered?

ISPs who have pre-registered through PrivateBrandedISP.com will be kept apprised of news items as they become available through the Updates page on this web site.

Once the wireless services launch, the Branded ISPs will be provided with a special and private channel of communication with the Corporate Reseller.

17. How can your mobile technology challenge the monopoly which the cellular industry has over a global population - especially now that third generation (G3) networks provide broadband connectivity for the smartphone?

The mobile technology can accomplish what cellular technology can only aspire to - and that is: to provide broadband Internet access to the masses regardless of where that access is needed.

It will be a ubiquitous signal.

Any perusal of a Telco Network coverage map will show the patch work of system access is largely concentrated in urban areas but with vast rural areas remaining unserviced.

Cellular technology is limited by the need to tradeoff the size of any Cell area with the number of subscribers accessing the Network within that Cell area - at any one time.

Thus, these Cell areas are very small in the urban centers (perhaps one [1] square mile) to service thousands of subscribers - and therefore require many repeater transmitters in these subscriber concentrated areas in order to extend Network coverage.

Although cellular technology is wireless - cellular carriers still have to deal with ‘last mile' issues that hamper the ADSL and cable networks. It still comes down to the economics of 'supply and demand'. They all have to justify the expense of network expansion weighed against the profitability of gaining new subscribers in any given area.

This mobile wireless technology can transmit the Internet connection signal over 30 miles (slightly less in mountainous terrain) before it needs to hand over to the next transmitter - AND regardless of the number of subscribers connecting simultaneously. This 30 mile figure is a radius - which means EACH transmitter can cover over 3,000 square miles (8,000 square kms).

Therefore, population/subscriber density makes no difference to this mobile wireless technology - so transmitter placement is basically determined by range of transmission.

A conservative estimate (when you crunch the numbers) would indicate perhaps 6,000 repeaters to provide ubiquitous coverage throughout the entire North American continent.

By comparing this to the millions of cellular repeater towers needed to achieve equivalency of bandwidth, coverage and mobility - it’s like believing true communications convergence can be achieved through a proliferation of class 1 trunk roads that are merely functionally adequate for mass produced smartphones.

There really is no comparison - especially when you consider this Internet technology will facilitate a new phase in the evolution of corporate, institutional and technical enterprise (to name a few) that will greatly benefit from a truly ubiquitous, mobile, super high speed Internet infrastructure.

18. I don't believe your claims. The physics make it impossible.

Of course, the 'proof is in the pudding'.

This will be a mute point after the technology goes 'live'.

The real issue is whether an ISP will gamble their business integrity upon their certainty that this mobile technology is impossible.

As with any technological breakthrough, the mind of the inventor sees things differently than the status quo mind. So, the reason this mobile technology has received patents is (believe it or not) - because nobody else has done this before.

Once it goes 'live' - competitors will see how it works - in principal. Then they will have to innovate the technology (or discover an entirely new technology) in a way that does not infringe upon the patents.

Then they will have to gamble the billions of dollars and 3+ years needed to develop, test and bring their patented technology (it will have to be patented) to the market.

So two questions need to be asked:

As an ISP, do I have the resources to make that gamble?

Given the nature of disruptive technologies - i.e. the speed of their deployment and adaptation in modern times - will I still be in business if I take that gamble?

19. Is the Branded ISP Program exclusively for businesses who already provide Internet access?

No.

The reason for a Private Branded ISP Program is to provide a mechanism for established ISPs to retain their customer base.

It is not the intention of the Wireless Corporation to wipe out existing ISPs.

The fact is: this is a disruptive technology and as such will have an unavoidable and predictable impact upon all communication modalities. Added to this is the nature of viral marketing inherent within a global community already unified through the Internet and Cellular technology.

Proactive businesses can capitalize upon this technology through the Branded ISP Program as 'the first adopters'. These businesses are typically the 'already established' Internet Service Provider.

However other businesses (classified as Internet Solution Providers) will quickly follow suit because the Branded ISP Program makes it very simple for these companies to provide this mobile wireless Internet access in addition to their inventory of preexisting products and services.

The whole notion of what constitutes an ISP will rapidly morph from a specialized service into an added convenience or benefit for any company, organization, or entity who has an existing clientele, membership or user base to whom they can offer this mobile wireless Internet access.

Since subscription rates will be set by the Wireless Corporation (with products, services and connectivity germane to the network), companies will grow on the basis of offering their own products and services to the public to gain market share.

20. The entrenchment of the Telcos and the evolution of the Mobile Phone (especially in consideration of its success in bridging the 'digital divide' between 1st and 3rd world populations) is too extensive, too deep to be seriously affected by this 'new' technology. Why would the masses need your Mobile Internet when web-enabled smartphones operating on rapidly proliferating 3G (soon 4G) Networks provide beyond what could possibly be needed?

In the final analysis, the ability to communicate better, faster and more completely is hampered by the weakest link. The last hundred years has demonstrated that technology is evolving communication modalities in a multiplicity of ways - and this dynamic is happening better, faster and more completely than ever before.

For example: the invention of the automobile supplanted the horse and carriage as the preferred mode of transportation - and this adaptation fueled the need to build better roads, different kinds of roads and more of them. This better infrastructure of roads facilitated a more sophisticated evolution in the automobile - with more diversity and more of them - and so on.

When you critically analyze the state of the Information Superhighway - a good way to gain an accurate perspective of how much better it could get - is to ask why a device such as the OQO (www.oqo.com) is not more pervasive than it is right now?

The answer to this question has to do with the fact that the present Internet Infrastructure has a limited ability to handle such a device. It’s like owning a Ferrari but you can only really experience its full potential if you find a closed circuit racetrack - or go to Germany and drive it on the Autobahn.

Sure, not everybody finds it practical or even has a need to drive a Ferrari - but the improved quality of roads has facilitated a general evolution in the diversity, functionality and quality of the automobile. So, it's the old question of 'which came first, the chicken or the egg?'. No matter which answer you lean toward, the fact is: mobility, performance and sophistication of devices will not significantly progress without the strong link to a corresponding quality Internet infrastructure - upon which they may operate to their fullest potential.

Why would you want to drive a horse and carriage on a Motorway or Highway? If you knew such roads existed - and they were everywhere - yet you still persisted in driving your horse and carriage while Ferrari after Lexus after Hummer after Minivan after ‘Pocket Rocket’ are blowing your wheels off (with their cost cheaper than operating your horse and carriage) - how long would it take for you to wise up?

The fact is: smartphone manufacturers will retool to offer devices that are functional as desktop computers in order to stay in business. The micro technology already exists - and just like any other mass produced item - demand will reduce their costs for the mass market.
