Saw an interesting article on Slate about the FCC's proposed release of new Wi-Fi bands to the general public. These bands were former frequencies used by analog television before everything went digital. These new proposed bands offer increased power and distance over current Wi-Fi bands. Some drawbacks noted were interference with live broadcast mics such as concerts or sporting events. Anyhoo, sounds exciting and it was interesting learning what the industry did with what was considered "garbage bands" in the 80's (your wireless uses these bands as we speak).
