Wifi has an incredibly limited range compared to these technologies. You'd need a repeater every dozen meters or so, which means running power to all of those repeaters. Meanwhile SigFox can run up to 50km. That's a huge reason to run SigFox instead of wifi.
With your reasoning, we might as well take down all the cell phone towers and just make calls over wifi, wifi is everywhere right?
- patrickg_zill 10y agoI wasn't aware that sigfox could travel such distances. Then again you can do 10km+ with a grid antenna connected to one of the WiFi chips. It might look silly, but it would work.
