How is it that we still cannot combine wifi networks to increase bandwidth, is there someone working on that?

  • SD-WAN includes that but it is not its sole purpose, although I agree most vendors will say that's what you want. WAN/Link Aggregation, Multilink Aggregation, Link Load Balancing, Equal Cost Multipath, WAN Virtualisation, etc are ways to bundle multiple links together.

    In WIFI terms, it's called channel bonding, it was proprietary and various vendors had their own implementations, see "Super G".

  • You'd be surprised. A little window rattler AC could be powered by such a setup - ie I have a 1.6kw cooling A/C with an input rating of 490W, I've measured it to be around that. That will cool a bedroom somewhat. The issue will be the surge power when the compressor kicks in, so maybe add 50%.

  • FTTC can provide these sorts of speeds, FTTN, not so much. VDSL2 can deliver 250Mbit/s at around 200m.

  • Sort of along the same vein - as unions grew weak in Australia a different way to represent workers was needed. Industry Superannuation funds were created. Workers pay into these retirement funds which in turn invest in the companies. These funds now represent the investors interest in the companies the investors work at.
