This chapter outlined the current regulatory regime for 802.11 operators. It attacked the objection that not enough spectrum is available for a mass market deployment of 802.11 and that government interference in this area will only lead to a stultifying regulatory regime, which could kill 802.11 as a promising alternative as a last-mile solution to telephone and cable TV companies. Recent studies and pronouncements by the FCC and members of the U.S. Senate indicate support for reforming the spectrum policy in promoting the deployment of 802.11 and its related technologies.
