RE: [WIRELESS-LAN] Disable 1M 2M data rates in High density enviroment

2007-10-30 Thread Hector J Rios
I agree with Kevin. We actually did it with all of our APs (all 1500 of
them) and we haven't had one issue. One thing you want to keep in mind
is that if you are going to do it partially, make sure that the coverage
cells that support 1M  2M do not overlap the ones that don't support
it.

We've done this in some areas, especially where the APs were deployed
quite densely. As long as that's the case, it seems to be a good move.
It prevents clients that are 300' away from dragging down the
performance for everyone.

 We get better throughput but decrease the AP coverage. Also it
decrease 
 the noise and co-channel interference in high density environment.
 
  
 
 Has anyone tried this? Any luck or bad about it?
 
  
 
 Thanks!
