Airband Increases Bandwith In Houston

Airband Communications Inc. has increased its broadband presence in the Houston area by 50 percent, the company said Tuesday.

The Dallas-based wireless broadband provider said the increase was part of a nationwide expansion that also doubled the company's bandwidth.

In Houston, the company revamped base stations along U.S. 290, U.S. 59 South, the Westchase area and Sugar Land.

Each base station provides coverage for a three- to five-mile-radius area. In addition, Airband upgraded its existing network infrastructure to further broaden its service coverage and market reach.
