Another item to point out is that the 802.11b standard autonegotiates the speed down or up depending on signal strength. There is also a built-in buffering mechanism to alleviate packet lossiness. Overall, the standard performs well, with 2Mb speeds at 100+ft (depending on cleanliness of path to base station) and 11Mb speeds within the 30+ft range. My bottom line? This standard is here to stay and is mature enough for deployment for residential and comercial use. The costs will continue to drop over the next 12-18 months. I estimate a 30-60% reduction in prices as the standard becomes more readily accepted. Next on my radar, is 3G. -Mister Safety Back to the Index
