Northwestel Shuts Down Navigo Wireless Internet Service

Important!

Dear visitors,

This blog and the Tigarus.com network will be changing our website software in May (2024). There will be some down time and there will be a change to the webpage addresses.

We will also be removing the Anime blogs. The Rocksmith Songs website will be unavailable of a few weeks or months while I move the database to the new software.

At the moment we are running on Wordpress, the new software is an in-house project which is 57 times faster. It will also provide more freedom for development.

Thank you for understanding.

Opinions:
The long lived Navigo service was perhaps a dead fish in the world of Internet services from day one, although the WiMax technology looked promising with a maximum theoretically rage of 20kms, the technology failed to evolve over the years and has now been over taken by cell phone data services. WiMax technology recently had it’s 2.0 standard/specifications approved in 2011, but was too many years too late to be of any value to already existing WiMax providers.

As for Northwestel customers, it should come to no surprise that the service has been officially discontinued as the company had silently dropped maintenance for their WiMax infrastructure years ago. Northwestel is in fact making the smart business decision to discontinue WiMax and possibly focus on cell phone services.
