Trying to comprehend the ccomplicated 3 dimensional synaptic-like spiderweb that is "wifi".
I have the Atheros 5004 cchipset in a Winstrom CM9 mini pci, and I'm certain that it must be better than the stocker Intel that made the purdy "Centrino" (!) logo appear during coldboot because I can now recieve (and logon to) my VERY distant nieghbor's network!
But I never did have any real problems with the Intel, like dropped connections, etc. -Then again, my router is pretty close.
The Atheros wifi utility shows I'm at 54 Mbps for both transfer and reciecve rates.
Does "Super G" / "Super AG" turn on only when demand says so? This is what I understand from the Atheros site. Is there a way to force this superness? They say on the website that the "On Demand" functionality is in an effort to conform to FCC standards as far as sharing bandwidth.
But what if I were to kill the "on demand" thing somehow, and run the thing like an obnoxious pig who didn't care about impeding upon bandwidth space (or whatever that would be? Would there actually be anything to gain?
