[QUOTE="krs, post: 1862621, member: 67742"] [USER=40328]@Jake[/USER] - Can't argue with what you posted in your long post #16 although, based on what I read so far, I'm not at all convinced the issue simply traces back to defective equipment. And re chscag's comment, I ended up switching back to the 2.4GHz WiFi band as well because the higher speed was just not reliable enough and kept dropping as people moved their laptops around in the house and the yard. I'm on a 100 Mb/s fiber connection to the net and that for all our purposes is more than fast enough - I'm actually thinking of renewing at the 50 Mb/s fiber plan if it's a lot cheaper than the 100 Mb/s plan. We tried out the 1 Gb/s plan for a month with no real perceived benefit - with the 1 Gb/s fiber plan, the 2.4GHz WiFi limited the speed to the Macs to around 350 Mb/s, so for us, going to a higher WiFi frequency would do nothing.
