The University of La Frontera (UFRO) in Temuco, Chile and the Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María (UTFSM) in Valparaíso, Chile have set-up an outdoor, point-to-multipoint wireless network between themselves and approximately eighty other educational institutions. Using a combination of Agere Systems ORiNOCO Outdoor Routers, Access Points, and World PC Cards, UFRO and UTFSM have implemented this "Wireless Multimedia IP Network." Financed by a government agency known as CORFO-FDI, the goal of the Wireless Multimedia IP Network is to broadcast high quality digital video to a group of schools located in the Valparaíso and La Araucanía regions of Western Chile. Burgos has been involved with radio technology since 1989, just prior to the Wireless Communications and Networking Division-WCND of NCR (now Agere Systems ORiNOCO) release of the first wireless networking product. Because of his comprehensive knowledge of radio technology, Burgos knew that wireless would be an easy and effective way to help close the technology gap between well-funded and less well-funded schools and to deliver network access between Universities and schools.
