I can see a point in the very near future where we will need to get well over 100Mbps through a single AP. Spectrum limitations and user bandwidth requirements will force it.
It’s going to take bigger/better processors, more bits/Hz and improved S/N. The Ti’s are an improvement over the Rockets, but clearly still fall somewhat short.

If you need more than 100M ethernet, get a real backhaul.

They were still on 5.3 but I’ll be upgrading them tomorrow. However, I don’t see any reason to pay the difference between the Rocket 5M and the Titanium with 20MHz channels, especially if you have RF Armor shields.
