Re:Alphabet wants to deliver Internet access via laser beams by slovette on Saturday December 16, 2017 @12:32AM (#15937916)
Yeah, expect laser won’t work any better than RF in real world applicability. We’re doing symmetrical 2.5Gbps to CPE using RF and I can’t, in the least bit, see how and why a laser may make for a better solution fit in any scenario.

There’s a point when a hard wired fiber line just makes sense and it’s all postering to put out press releases about some bs laser solution that supposed to somehow be better than RF but less difficult/expensive than just running a wire.
