While a higher carrier frequency (5.8 vs 2.4 MHz) has more bandwidth capacity I doubt it matters in this case, none of the 802.11 protocols are likely to be pushing the bandwidth available. Range is highly problematic. Typically higher frequencies get absorbed more than lower frequencies. On the other hand high frequencies are more likely to bounce than low. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
