X-List-Unsubscribe: Send email to mailusers-request@2rosenthals.com X-List-Owner: mailusers-owner@2rosenthals.com A little more on the subject, from another article on the same site, this one dealing with 2.4GHz vs 5GHz equipment (http://www.80211-planet.com/tutorials/article.php/1569271): 2.4GHz WLANs can experience interference from cordless phones, microwaves, and other WLANs. The interfering signals degrade the performance of an 802.11b WLAN by periodically blocking users and access points from accessing the shared air medium. If it's not possible to reduce potential interference to an acceptable level, then consider deploying a 5GHz system, which is relatively free from interfering sources. -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------ Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA Rosenthal & Rosenthal Accountants / Network Consultants New York / Northern Virginia www.2rosenthals.com Team OS/2 / NetWare Users International www.whytheylie.com ------------------------------------------------------------ This OS/2 system (Apollo) uptime is 0 days 15:42 hours and 27 seconds =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to steward@2rosenthals.com with the command "unsubscribe os2-wireless_users" in the body (omit the quotes).
