The 802.11n is suppose to be faster and have a better signal at farther distances right? |

Can't wait till the standard is finished, and get some reviews on routers so I can get one without any bugs ;p |

the IEEE would probably have taken a few more years to hammer this out. Good for the vendors putting a little pressure on IEEE. |

Be thankful you are allowed to have 400mbs in the first place. |

Re: bah
Yeah
Hopefully they'll start putting more 10/100/1000 ports on consumer routers,
since the wireless throughput will "theoretically" exceed that of wired hosts. |

300Mbit wireless is pretty good. If you have channel bonding you can have 600Mbit. |

Re: If it weren't for the pre-draft stuff
it's about time this got rolling....
Maybe we'll finally start seeing wireless networks with real-world throughputs above 100 meg (I know the currently draft-N can hit 70-90 meg, real world)...
So, when will the final "N" be approved? |

Well I'll just look for routers with draft 2.0 chipsets, then I'll be fine. I'm not waiting a year for ratification.......because I don't want to invest in soon to be outdated inadequate a/b/g gear for my needs. So'll I'll buy 802.11n gear that uses draft 2.0 chipset. |

| They are going to need more...
The routers would have to have gigabit ports because with the new DOCSIS 3.0 and FiOS, they will be well over 160Mbps, they will have to have gigabit ports. Even if the raw speed is 600Mbps, it'll only be maxed at around 300Mbps. Hopefully as our ISPs get faster, so will the wireless standard. They will have to upgrade the speeds like they did with 802.11g. Only time will tell, but even the new USB standard will be faster than this, and it'll be operating at 1Gbps! IEEE just takes too long. |

Whats all the fuss over a 802.11N standard? What are the differences between the draft and final N? |

1 edit | said by patcat88 :Whats all the fuss over a 802.11N standard? What are the differences between the draft and final N? Many interoperability issues have been resolved in v1.10 aka draft 2.0 of the specifications versus the buggy draft 1.0 specs. Draft 2.0 was unaminously approved in this month and will goto letter ballot in march and will be ratified and becom the final standard next year. |
