Not for speed but for range and signal strength.
If you have dropouts it's probably because of weak signal strength or
interference, not bandwidth.
I replaced my 802.11g router with a N router with 3 antennas and
I've been looking at buying an N router for almost a year now and
could not conclude that any of them were finished products or worth the
time over a godo G router.
Real N is supposed to be 3-radio devices with 3 antennas. Try finding
those on the market. Basically you cant.
This does need to

Recommendation
* In order to keep costs down while still offering these benefits to
those who want/need it, the best scenario would be if Logitech offered
a replacement mini-PCI Wifi to support 802.11n. I'm sure they could
sell this device at a nice profit and
Thanks for all your replies. There were some other good reasons given
for why 802.11n (or Draft N currently) should be added to devices.
Summary of Benefits
* 5 GHz operation avoids interference from microwaves, phones, etc.
* Gives ability for people to use Greenfield mode for increased

Everything I've read says this too. But the spec is being written by
those who stand to profit more if the final spec is NOT firmware

Slim Devices has made it more then clear on this Forum that they *Do Not

change tomorrow, sure.
Past reasons for not moving to N:
There is not a standardized official specification at this time.

It would also be beneficial to folks using their Slim Devices are wireless

802.11a is also 5Ghz. I think the squeezebox does that? Streaming MP3s
does not take much bandwidth. Wonder if it would work?
No, 802.11b and 802.11g only.

Can anyone comment on future support for 802.11n? Specifically I am
referring to any new devices planned that will include 5 GHz 802.11n
WiFi.
I'd like to buy a Squeezebox for the kitchen, but the problem is that
when the microwave is turned on there is a lot of interference on the
2.4 GHz

SlimDevices/Logitech never comment on future products.
I'd like everything on my network to be
802.11n within 18 months.
Do you think that the spec will be real by then?
And of course, 11p will be stared as soon as 11n is
You'll need to wait 11 months or so before it's even possible to make an
802.11n device, and that's if the ratification process stays on
schedule. However if you start shopping 18 months from now, I'd say
you're likely to find 802.11n devices on the market, possibly even some
from SlimDevices.

Most importantly, its not really needed for what the Squeezeboxes do at
this time.
I disagree here. Sure, if bandwidth were the only consideration, they
don't even need to use 802.11g. But there's range considerations too.
Considering that they've got new portable
