Zen Internet Offers Successful Home Worker Solution to Peninsula Business Services | 2008-06-13 | Zen Internet |
| Peninsula Business Services Ltd provides Health, Safety, Personnel and Employment Law consultancy to a wide client base across the UK. Peninsula's Internet connectivity was proving too slow and inefficient, taking up valuable business time. Advice workers could not input customer information into the company system until the next day and were required to travel into the office. This process was therefore proving inconvenient, as it was difficult to keep customer case information up to date on the company's Intranet-based system. Zen connected Peninsula's home workers using ADSL Max broadband accounts with download speeds of up to 8Mbps, all with free static IP addresses to meet the VPN requirements.

How Two Retired Navy Veterans Help New Recruits at the Great Lakes Naval Station Stay Connected With Family and Friends Without Torpedoing Their Paychecks | 2008-02-13 | Motorola |
| Web access for sailors stationed at the Great Lakes Naval Station is limited, slow, and lacks printers to make prints of letters from home, course assignments and pay information. Offsite locations are several miles away, have inconvenient hours, and are expensive to use. A cyber cafe within walking distance of the base was created by two Navy veterans who hired db3 Broadband to install Motorola's Canopy point-to-point wireless broadband network for fast, reliable web access. As a result sailors can purchase low cost monthly access packages to use the café's 15 computers with printers available as well as gaming systems to send letters and photos or play electronic games with family and friends worldwide.

Motorola Case Study: Omsk, Russia | 2008-02-13 | Motorola |
| The service provider T-Service is deploying wireless broadband to cover as much as 90 percent of the territory of the city of Omsk, Russia, which supports a population of more than 1.4 million people. The network was originally planned to support the commercial transfer of information from filling stations and automatic teller machines, or what is often referred to as machine-to-machine communications. But the existing trunking system could not support high enough data speeds and did not provide the required coverage, so the carrier began looking for alternative solutions. It chose Motorola's Canopy wireless broadband system, which allowed T-Service to expand beyond its original business plan.

Motorola Case Study: New Mexico Dairy | 2008-02-13 | Motorola |
| A dairy in New Mexico, which needed to build a communication link between their office and a new warehouse complex to track their multiple fluid milk product lines, was soured on the costs to trench and bury conventional communication cables beneath railroad tracks and paved lots.
