Hi all, As a result of changing internet plan, I scored a new modem. It creates 2 wireless networks - one on 2.4GHz and one on 5GHz.
Both appear to work just fine so I used the option click on the wireless menu-bar icon to see what differences were apparent. Report as follows: 2.4GHz network: RSSI: -68 Transmit rate: 117 MCS Index: 14 5GHz network: RSSI: -70 Transmit rate: 162 MCS Index: 12 I'm not sure what that all means ;o) I understand transmit rate - which would seem to suggest that the 5GHZ at 162 is performing slightly better than the 2.4GHz at 117 ?? Are the other figure significant? Are there other factors to consider when choosing which network to use? TIA Cheers Neil -- Neil R.
