Re: "Wi-Fi freeloaders would probably beg to differ..."

I have too many WiFi neighbors in my area that WiFi from my own machine is useless (too much interference), and of course, it kills my Bluetooth headset.
I'm currently only seeing 4 from my backyard office.
In my garage attic, I typically get double that amount.

I stick to the Netgear HDX-101 for connectivity... less issues running SSH/Remote desktop.

Time to switch to 802.11a?

For me ... these are a little more reliable/consistent for connectivity. I'd be having issues if they were running 'N'.
None of these are mine... including the unsecured wireless.

These give me 100Mbps anywhere in my house (85Mbps throughput due to 100Mbps ports)

IEEE needs to be shot for not having variable/dynamic/on the fly changing transmit power. APs/wifi clients dont reduce their transmit power when they are closer. That causes serious wifi pollution problems. Goto Union Square in NYC, I get about 1000 APs, none of them connectable.
