[slim] N band Wireless

2011-03-16 Thread Steveyid
Am just moving to a new house where I will have a wireless N band router. I have a Duet and a Radio (and previously had a G band router). Will the SBoxes work automatically on the N band or will I need to make any adjustments to the router? Also, as the point of having N band is to increase

N routers, at least the ones with 3 antennas, do multipath, so I imagine those would help with G clients. If you need N, and I'd assume you need it for the range as you certainly don't need the data rate for a SB, you can get a dd-wrt capable router that does N, install dd-wrt, put it into

At this point I don't understand why they don't incorporate 802.11n into the Squeezebox line. It isn't all that more expensive, and pretty mature by now. I have a SBR on the way, and am running only 802.11n my Wi-Fi network (all my other SQ units are hard wired), so I'm going to have to fire up

Don't forget that all the models of SB current for sale were designed at least two years ago (some of them much longer ago than that). Your statements about N being cheap and mature weren't true back then. -- andynormancx Yes, it will. Yes, all of them. Yes, SoftSqueeze as well. What ? I SAID

Yes all existing sb models was designed before the N standard was finalized . So all that existed then was N-draft hardware. I assume that if a new product was designed they consider it. Wonder if not the new products have onboard wifi chipset and not removable. So existing hardware is what it

You will probably want to look at task manager (or whatever equivalent for Windows 7) to try to see what's going on. One thing this change does is that ALL streams will now be transcoded. For example, I believe even a 44.1kHz MP3 will get sent through LAME and transcoded to 44.1kHz. I think
