Hi
I currently have two wireless networks in my place.
Airport Extreme 802.11n 5ghz
Speedtouch wireless modem 802.11g
I connect my macbook pro to the Airport extreme wirelessly. The others that are not capable of 'n', i connect to the speedtouch i.e. iphone 4, missus netbook etc
The issue is that my missus' netbook is actually capable of 'n', but only on the 2.4ghz freq. Same with my iphone 4.
I have heard that 2.4ghz freq is more suspectible to interferance from bluetooth devices like cordless phones etc. I don't really have anything like that in my lounge though.
My main concern is the speed difference between 802.11n on 2.4ghz and 5ghz. Do you think I will see a real world decrease in speed if I set the router to 2.4ghz?
I mainly use my laptop for browsing and ocassional downloading. I also use it to sometimes wirelessly stream media from my NAS.
What do you reckon? Keep setup way it is or just change Airport to 2.4ghz so all devices can access it?
