Check zdnet for the summary. FH gear does 1 Mbit, most of the DSS vendors are squarely in the 4 Mbit range. According to zdnet, the Cisco Aironet stuff did 6 Mbits. Your mileage varies according to the number of clients.. You can get 5.x Ghz radios in the 100 mbit throughput range, but I've only seen point to point 5.x Ghz radios. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian" To: "FreeBSD Mailing List" Sent: Wednesday, June 06, 2001 8:52 AM Subject: Re: Wireless LAN > ok, I've been thinking of doing something like this, to keep cat-5 out of my > living room.
