Re: And....

Good routers are a lot more than $50 nowadays, like the ASUS RT-N66U Dark Knight with N900.

Re: Interference

Same deal here. Most people have newer dual-band WAP's and beat the shit out of both 2.4 and 5.8GHz. Doesn't bother my PtP UBNT link, as I'm a ham radio operator and run mine above 5900MHz where consumer unlicensed gear can't go.

Consumer grade wifi is almost useless in this building, and I have to keep telling tenants that there's nothing I can do about it.

Re: 5 Ghz Doesn't Seem to Need More Channels :)?

i dont get why WiFi doesnt use some thing like FHSS? we use it with our RC gear and it works great

The old 1Mbps radios used fhss. It is not an efficient modulation method.
