My hopes of the new SB Touch having 802.11n at 54ghz didn't pan out. For one, I'm going to hold off on buying any wireless product that doesn't support 802.11n using 5ghz. At present my entire network is capped by having two SB3s running at 802.11g & 2.4ghz. This brings my top-end down from 540 to 144mbps.
As suggested in another post, I could run CAT to each device, but that would come dangerously close to the 100m max of CAT5. The cable would have to run from a second story, down to the ground floor, out to the pool house, and then spit and go all the way to the our work shed. Not to mention having a blue wire laying in the open, hanging from tree branches, or buried in the garden (the most direct route). A second alternative would be to use a separate router for 802.11b/g devices. This would only work if I didn't want to keep the server on the fast connection, where it also serves music and movies to our laptops and media center, and hosts our file server and website. If someone has an idea as to how to set this up on a PPC Mac G5 I'm open to hear any suggestions.
