But, please make it 2x2 MIMO and _dual_band_ .11n because: 1) We need to get out of the 2.4GHz band, it's just not going to work well enough in the long term. 2) If you go to 5GHz to escape the co-channel interference, you will lose 6dB of signal strength on average, and a bit more besides due to lower power transmit power, but a 2x2 MIMO system will recover about as much as was lost compared to a single antenna solution at 2.4GHz. 3) If an Airport Express can implement (selectable dual-band) 2x2 MIMO in its diminutive form factor, so could an updated version of any of the current SB products. -- dsdreamer ---------------------- "Dreamer, easy in the chair that really fits you..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dsdreamer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12588 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65719 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
