Okay I have my rts set to I think what someone suggested (1024 I think) and 
things seem to be good I do notice a LOT less packet loss whats even funnier is 
I see more RTs and CTS comeing from a less busy access point then the busy one? 
Should I try lowering it some more?

On RTS what is RTS I know its ready to send clear to send but what is it 
sending am I actually changing the size of how big of a packet the radio queues 
up before asking to send to the AP or???
Tryng to explain this to my not so technical partner
OR to make it easier s there a good site you can refer me to so he can learn 
more?
Thanks
