Every time I've tried to get radio going to a residential address (ie, in a suburb or regional centre) it's only been possible using products that sadly don't fall under the 'fast and reliable' umbrella.
If you are lucky enough to be able to subscribe to a decent provider then be thankful and take the opportunity - I know I would if I could.
I've used several kinds of residential wireless connections, and the only ones that suffer high latency are those based on mobile technology (GPRS, 3G, UMTS), i.e. the offerings from Woosh, Telecom and Vodafone. Fixed wireless (e.g. Wired Country, BCL) and WiMax/WiFi links are low latency, in fact often better latency than you get on ADSL. Cheers -Simon
