wifi B/G/N

I'm use "notebook" to connecting internet via "Coffee Shop" use WiFi to connecting

my problem is:

(1) is possible to check "my notebook" and "that connecting" is used "WiFi Mode ( B or G or N ?

(2) my notebook wifi hardware can support max "N ",
that coffee shop max support "G ",

that connecting used mode "G ",

if my notebook hardware can support "N" , is more stable, NOT dis-connecting ?

Please!

 

Don't know of a way to check which mode your wireless is useing except to use a trafic monitoring program or gadget and compairing the network trafic speed to the B,G,N standards.

The second part of your question if the coffee shop is set up to use 802.11G your notebook will connect in G mode. The N mode is set up for different protocols and will only connect to an N system.

 

connecting internet, use Coffee Shop WiFi

base env: Coffee Shop WiFi max "G" mode
notebook WiFi max "N" mode
only 2 person to connecting

In windows status, normal say this connecting is
"Very Best" "54mb "
"Best" "48mb "
"Normal" "24mb "
"Poor"
"Very Poor"


Sometime "notebook" in desk no moving, that connecting say "54mb ", "48mb ", "24mb "

I feel is auto-changed "Wifi" mode ? G->B, B->G~

any idea!

 

Hate to tell you its all hockpockus and marketing hype when it comes to wi-fi
Your n card as stated will do g ( and older b)
G ( and b) use the same frequencies as baby monitors and older cordless phones
N uses a higher frequency in the 5 ghz range - somewhere around ( but not exactly) in the 5 ghz range of newer cordless phones
G is a souped up faster version of b
The speeds that are quoted on the box are by the maker are sheer fantasy
to begin with cut the speed in 1/2
Overhead to run the signal ( and i guess security too ) uses 1/2
With g and b - after 30 feet it drops like a stone
I have not used N so I cannot give you exact data on that
Yet in all actuality in most cases even a slow signal is way faster than most people's internet connection anyways
If you need to transfer a large amount of data between computers , or if you are streaming video you may as well use an ethernet cable or a powerline adapter setup
Wi fi is high tech and impresses people but it is prone to all kinds of problems and is not 100 %

 

no, they only assume you and the wiireless access points are the only RF devices around in miles. What's not realistic about that?

that's a bit cynical

whoa there

someone is making assumptions about antennae in use.

I would love to hear some pointers from you on how to talk the wifi cafe into that one

of the many problems a large one is people. the more people using the TINY frequency spectrum simultaneously the less fun (bandwidth) it will be.
