7) Implement 802.11n in the product. Congestion/crummier performance as the band gets more crowded is exactly why n/MIMO/other newer wireless technologies have been created. Yeah, I know it's draft, yada, yada, yada, but it's certainly baked well enough that all new wireless gear is N now. Get it done and I'll bet the problem, while maybe not solved at the root cause, will be masked well enough to not affect most people. -- mbonsack ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mbonsack's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1398 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65719 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
