We recently hosted a webinar (click to view) with Craig Mathias on wireless trends for the upcoming year. Craig, as always, did a very interesting job of talking about both WWAN and WLAN technologies as well as the impact on devices and users. By far the topic that is generating the most interest is 802.11n. Most questions centered around the additional speed and coverage that “n” brings but also a lot of questions about how “n” will co-exist with existing a/b/g networks. One of Craig’s main points was the “n” shouldn’t be considered a replacement for “g” and should be used to augment existing networks. He also stressed using “n” in the 5GHz range (same as 802.11a) to avoid interference with existing “g” networks.

Craig was able to answer quite a few questions and if you have some of your own feel free to post them on our forum.
