Basically I
would like to have some wireless technology that replaces cables from
point A to point b-z.

Sounds multidrop to me.

Pretty much though each device may communicate independent of
each other which isn't usually the way multidrop works (usually
master/slave).

Why are you trying to reinvent CSMA-CD or Ethernet?

??? What gave you the idea that I'm trying to reinvent CSMA-CD or
Ethernet? Besides WiFi doesn't use either CSMA-CD (it uses CSMA/CA)
or Ethernet. ;-)

Right now I haven't decided whether I'm going layer 1 replacement or
IP. If it's a layer 1 (cable) replacement then the end points won't
know anything about the wireless protocol.
