Ah ha, Thanks Bill What's the difference between an RB600, RB800 and an Intel Atom with 4x Radio cards?
Surely if it works with the RB800's then it should work with the Intel Atom? Would a 40mhz channel remedy the issue?

The throughput of the plain vanilla PCI bus is 133 Mega BYTES/second (AKA 133.3 MB/s (note the big "B")). That is total throughput. Translate that to bits (little b) it is 1,067 Mbps. So getting 4 * 35 Mbps (140 Mbps) throughput should not be a major problem. Getting 4 radios to work in close proximity would probably be a major problem. bp On 11/11/2010 2:10 PM, james wrote: > Hi Josh > > Thanks for the info. > > Is that 133mbps full duplex throughput?
