BendBroadband’s service area
for Internet and telephone service is about to get a whole lot bigger. Because
we’re currently installing a network of wireless towers that will provide
coverage to Central Oregon. The coverage will be fast, too. In fact, it’ll offer
some of the fastest wireless connections available anywhere in the country —
with speeds comparable to cable and DSL modems. Right here in Central Oregon.
From a local company people have been
relying on since 1955.

Wireless Standards
Today a variety of technologies exist that pave the road for wireless standards. In the short-term, you may hear terms like HSPA, HSPA+, EVDO, WiMax and LTE. BendBroadband Wireless will be using the wireless standard HSPA+ (High Speed Packet Access Plus) offered over high powered, dedicated licensed spectrum, which means for you the fastest wireless speeds and highest levels of service quality throughout Central Oregon. In fact, with HSPA+ we will provide one of the fastest wireless data network in the country. In addition, HSPA+ provides an evolutionary path to the future wireless standard LTE (Long Term Evolution) providing rock solid speeds both today and tomorrow.
How does HSPA+ differ from Wi-Fi?
The HSPA+ standard allows us to provide a product experience similar to a cable modem over high powered, dedicated licensed spectrum. Wi-Fi, on the other hand, uses unlicensed spectrum and is not capable of providing speeds as fast, coverage as large and service as reliable as HSPA+. Wi-Fi is meant for small 'hot spots' in the home or other recreational uses. Our Wi-Fi 'hot spots' are a complementary product to our High Speed Internet service and is designed for convenience.
The other time you will hear Wi-Fi throughout this launch is within the home. In this case, we will provide service to your home using our HSPA+ standard to your modem. That modem has Wi-Fi capabilities included turning your home into a 'hotspot'.
