base site to a small, wireless modem the size of a
paperback book, which easily connects a user’s
computer to the Internet. For more information, visit

TIPS
Q:
"How secure is Clearwire? Is it more secure
than Wi-Fi?"
A:
Clearwire is very secure. It's more secure than
Wi-Fi because it uses OFDM transmission protocol
(featuring a design standard that includes
secure wireless data transmission) and licensed
2.5GHz frequencies. Wi-Fi operates on unlicensed
2.4GHz frequencies, making it vulnerable to
scanning and packet interception.
