DOESN’T APPLE ADVOCATE 802.11g?


BusinessWeek weighs in, favoring 802.11a over Wi-Fi and 802.11g: some impeccable logic in why 802.11a is a better bet than 802.11g in the short-term and long-term. It doesn’t incorporate technical and financial data, however, which we should start seeing real-world analyses of as 802.11a is deployed. It’s great to say use 802.11a, but if you need a 2x or 3x denser installation for the same services, then it may be better to simply use RAID – redundant antennas with inexpensive devices.
