They haven't even given their distributors here in the UK an ETA, saying only 'TBD'. The distributor (MS Dist) say they expect shipment mid-to-late January though, but this is on a pre-order from September. Give Ubiquiti a good panning for the world's slowest ramp up of production when you do...

While I appreciate for most of the world which use radial circuits, immediate repeating isn't really a big factor, here in the UK we like to be weird and different... and Broadcom's response is a little... shortsighted. Firstly, we have enshrined in law that all buildings must be grounded...

That'd be great. Didn't mean to insinuate you redo all historical benchmarks (unless the results are quite dramatic), but a special article would more than suffice. The other thing is with MU-MIMO it seems to make much more sense to use many AV2 devices than just 2, as unlike wifi where...

Hi Tim, Immediating repeating and mesh networking is supposed to be supported within the HomePlug spec, but I wanted to ask you when testing Powerline adapters, could you also test with 4 devices rather than just 2, to see if there's any tangible and improved benefit when reaching far away...

Thanks for you kind words to what otherwise was a bit of a rant! I'll consider your offer for an article, but my problem is that I have very limited resources to be able to experiment with to investigate properly which tunings and techs would be best to use - but I'll see what I can do. With...

Hi Tim, While I appreciate the stringent rules you put NAS's through to try to keep a homogenous set up utilizing the same drives and network set up and the like, I was wondering whether you could begin testing a couple of other factors too. - Multi-usage, even in home. When, say you are...

Good work! Here are a couple of other (industry related) questions: 1) Since 802.11n took so long to be ratified, why haven't multi-stream capable products released after the standard was ratified been available from a variety of vendors? 2) Why is it only this year that we will see...

63MB/s is 504Mbps, which is actually not that bad. Another thing Tim didn't mention is that TCP/IP itself has overhead (ACK packets, headers in all the transmission units etc). Furthermore Ethernet has a lot of collisions that should be eliminated by using a switch over a hub, but of course...

Hi, I've been stumped for a while trying to set up inter-VLAN routing for my network to segment the different types of network, in order to boost its efficiency as per your article on Jumbo frames and flow control. VLAN Setup - DMZ: VLAN 10, already setup, switching my 2 WAN modems with...
