Four Simultaneous Access Points OK for 802.11b

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the slashdot-needs-a-wireless-topic dept.

jlouderb writes "ExtremeTech is reporting on a new analysis that shows that four of the 11 802.11b channels can actually be used simultaneously, rather than the just the three used today. This has big ramifications for multi-access point installations, especially in taller buildings. The analysis was done by the CTO of an 802.11b startup called Cirond and a white paper with all the details should be posted to their site later today."
