Interconnecting broadband wireless with local telephone serving area interfaces provide an ability to establish a broadband communication system that delivers high speed Internet access over customer telephone lines unable to get such access through traditional telephone company systems. The present invention discloses how to interconnect a wireless-enabled terminal node to the telephone company serving area interface. How wireless terminal nodes are linked to the Internet using a plurality of microwave relays providing access, distribution and transport, as well as interconnect to the Internet. The terminal node provides Internet access to a variety of devises, including computers, computer networks, personal digital assistance, Internet appliances, telecommunications handsets, entertainment equipment and any other device serving as an information source and sink that is connected to the customer's home or office by two wire twisted copper pair or similar connections with a differing number of wires. In accordance with the present invention, a wireless terminal node is provided. The wireless terminal node permits rapid, scalable, and inexpensive growth of broadband Internet access to communities otherwise unable to be served due to limitations within the outside telecommunications feeder cables and transmission system.
