So much has been and will be said about the upcoming 802.11 PHY amendment called 802.11ax (hereafter just “11ax”) that I felt I needed to chime in to counteract some …
WiFi Design and Deployment Methodology
In each of my weekly classes, I do a full walk-through of the “Define, Design, Deploy, Diagnose (Validate/Optimize)” process. It’s never a surprise when most of the students are excited …
Dual-5GHz Radio APs
With client density continually on the rise, and more high-density use cases popping up all the time, it only makes sense to replace unused 2.4GHz radios with 5GHz radios in …
