>From the terse info in the article, it appears this will cause a bluetooth radio to attempt to stay out of the way of 802.11b radio transmission. As ISM airwaves get more crowded the bluetooth radio might find it has no where to go. - Dustin - "The interference potential was very real. Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) systems (used by Bluetooth) were required to spread their energy over most of the 2.4-GHz band using a pseudo-random "hopping pattern." Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) (used by Wi-Fi) occupies a static 22-MHz portion of the 2.4-GHz band. To resolve the interference issue, it was quickly determined that the fastest and most cost-effective fix for the problem would be to modify Bluetooth to "hop over" the 22-MHz channel of a Wi-Fi device if one was discovered to be in operation nearby. That is exactly what the FCC�s rule change permitted." - Dustin - ===== (e) [EMAIL PROTECTED] (w) 917.848.4113 There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
