Chuck, were these other radios 802.11n? I ask because pre 802.11n, multipath hurt the performance, as 802.11a/b/g were switched diversity (i.e. take the *best* signal and ignore the other ones). Now that the 802.11n standard has MRC, all of those signals are combined automagically (in theory, of course). So, yes...Ruckus has the reputation of making some kickass antennas to deal with multiplath, but I'm wondering if they can still maintain that edge now that the standard is solidified by IEEE. Put differently, how "smart" are their antennas now that the standard does a lot of what they were bragging about before? Is their "secret sauce" now simply a commodity? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
