Actually I had already read that... it's what came up when I googled the issue.

But, other than the particular single stream models the article mentions, it still doesn't make it clear how to tell what's a single stream router when you are ordering from NewEgg or wherever...

If the specs say the words "Draft N compliant" specifically does that mean it's MIMO N ?

In the cheaper models I am looking at I am afraid I'll get single stream...

I guess if it has two or three antennae I guess that would mean it is not single steam N .... ?

Funny how many of the N's don't have a print or drive USB port also...

Yes, it is very confusing. Single-stream means it is not MIMO. N is
supposed to require MIMO, but vendors got exceptions written into the
standard. I have read that single-stream devices may not always
interoperate with other N devices. A real mess. When you have a lot of
spare time, read
