But as "Tech Live" reports tonight, the founders of EtherLinx are decidedly understated.
"We didn't want big office space," said 36-year-old John Furrier, the company co-founder. The garage is "sufficient for us, and it works," he said.
"We're beginning to realize this is a pretty big deal," said 54-year-old Layne Holt, his partner.
Their "pretty big deal"? Inexpensive, wireless broadband that could drive traditional cable and phone companies out of business. That's because EtherLinx has come up with a way to tweak inexpensive, readily available wireless fidelity -- better known as Wi-Fi -- and extend its range from mere feet to up to 50 miles at incredibly high speeds. The data transfer rate has been successfully tested at 10 Mbps, but when it reaches the market it will offer only 2 Mbps.
