This was the only thread I could find concerning wifi traffic, so I am posting this little info here.
My Verizon/Frontier router took a dump recently and I order a new one. With the growing number of wifi devices in my home (30 +) I needed to start dividing up the devices to cut down on the strain on the 2 G signal. My router like most newer ones put out a dual signal, 2.4 G and 5 G, So I made sure all the devices I had that support 5 G would be on that signal. My server in the garage had a older 2 G adapter on it, so I purchased a 5 G to help relieve the strain. The unintentional bonus using the 5 G on the server was a bigger sound stage and more depth in my music. After thinking on this, it makes good sense as the 5 G is putting out more bandwidth to my squeezebox touches. We all known being hardwire is best, put like most my home was not built with network sockets in all the outlets, so wifi is the only way to stream. This could be about the cheapish upgrade to your system to improve your sound quality. 1st Touch in main HT rig hardwired to router connected 2nd Touch Wirelessly connected (Master Bedroom) 3rd Touch Wirelessly connected (bedroom) 4th Touch wirelessly connected (bedroom) 5th Touch 2 Wirelessly connected (livingroom) 6th Touch 4 Wirelessly connected (downstairs bedroom) Server (In garage) running on Duo Core P4 3.0 GHz 4 gig ram Windows 7 64 bit 350 Xternal gigHD 1TB backup Verizon Fios wireless router w/HG antana ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Recoveryone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9205 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=3974 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
