actually if it's a somewhat decently designed antenna it's just the other way around. If you use both WiFi and Bluetooth on the same antenna, the antenna electronics (yes, active antennas are all electronics) knows both signals and can separate them plus the chipsets can chose to avoid bands that are too close together, something that should always be possible with Bluetooth. With two antennas using the same (or close) band next to each other you have almost no chance to avoid interference. So it helps to use a combined chipset and especially to use a combined antenna. Rotten bad designs set aside, of course.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94903 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
