And for every posted problem there are many times more that don't have problems at all. I have a TP and 2 SB on my network, and do file transfers all the time between my laptop and my server and don't see dropouts. I also live in an area where I can see 10 access points including a municipal one across the street that pumps out a watt. Careful selection of what channel I'm on, and reasonable location for my AP is all I need to have full 54mbit signal and 20MB/sec transfers anywhere in my (small by most people's standards) flat. -- SuperQ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SuperQ's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2139 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38815 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
