OK, that’s good.
I have mostly seen routers default to 5745. My nemesis Google WiFi definitely doesn’t not choose 5180. Back when U-NII-1 and U-NII-2 were the indoor bands, of course the router manufacturers ignored that and went for the outdoor band. Like you’re really going to put a 20 dBi external antenna on your Linksys router or your laptop.

Yeah, 5ghz wasn't that common in consumer devices before the changes anyway, so pretty much everything should support UNII-1 just fine. I've noticed a lot of routers default to 5180mhz.

I think U-NII-1 was always allowed by FCC, so it seems all devices should support it. The change around 5 years ago was to allow higher xmt power or antenna gain or something? And will there be a performance penalty compared to U-NII-3? I know that’s not a simple question due to OOB emissions requirements and depends on hardware, but in general, will the performance be similar? For example, on a Mikrotik hAP ac or 4011? Not that Mikrotik is the poster boy for FCC 5 GHz support. -- AF mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
