Been away for a few days - sorry for the delay in responding. It was a few years ago when Belkin first came out with mimo-style "pre-n", not the current draft n. It had security options that my old G hub didn't support. My laptop with built-in b didn't support it either. They probalby do now, I've no idea and no real interest in it either. There is no point in designing a new device using old standards - as people have pointed out there probably isn't much in the way of a signifant price difference, just a simplicity/efficiency one.
My pre-n certainly appears to me to have much better range and reliability than my old G hub. Not a scientific test, but it has been confirmed with multiple devices (using the belkin pre-n cards and hub) vs the old G hub that I had for a while. It went through walls much better, no dead spots and null zones in the house and even work further out into the yard. So speed isn't the only thing to consider. -- dwilliams01 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dwilliams01's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10988 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=36169 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
