Thank you for pointing this out.  Not even 802.11 is legal in South Africa,
let alone Microwave.  Except in very special cases where our monopolised
telco may be forced to implement wireless connectivity, but they will still
charge the same (if not more) for this service as they do for a wired
connection of the same speed.
