No it does not. How woul the Linksys determine if it should RX/TX on a particular antenna ?
The purpose of two antennas is (said) that the box may use diversity for RX in order to overcome some phasing problems. But I believe it more a marketing issue. The reference model from Global Suntech had two antennas. Some vendors make one of the two antennas external (like DWL-900AP+) and the other internal on the PCMCIA board. /L ----- Original Message ----- From: "Florin Andrei" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 12, 2004 6:53 PM Subject: Re: [BAWUG] 30 DB directional.. > On Wed, 2004-06-30 at 01:13, blitz wrote: > > > My home lan runs a 1 watt transmitter into a 10dbi vertical on one > > port and a 24dbi dish on another, and that's only because I haven't got the > > money for the export amps, or I'd be running 5 watts. > > Ok, hold on.
