A lot of our customers are either using or looking to buy a new wireless access point based on the upcoming IEEE 802.11n networking standard. The IEEE standardization process is stalled right now, but that hasn't stopped vendors releasing 'pre-N' products on the market.
eWeek labs has just published an excellent round up of pre-N products and analyzes how well different companies' products interoperate. The conclusion is that they don't!. A major issue that I can see is that none of the access points seem to work very well at all with Intel's Pro Wireless adapters, which, at least in notebook PCs, totally dominate the market, because of their inclusion in the Centrino chipset-and-CPU bundle.
Our testing here at Sondigo Laboratory Central suggests that the Sirocco unit and the C-Media Wi-Sonic chipset works great with most of the 802.11n products. That is, the link from the access point to the Sirocco is fine, however the link from Intel Pro Wireless-based PCs to the access point is not so great and this can cause problems with the audio stream. The poor quality of the PC-AP link also poses big problems for web surfing, file transfer and general network throughput, but you won't notice it as much because these activities can handle packet losses much better than a real-time audio stream can. After reading the eWeek article, it looks like current pre-N products will take you backwards in performance if you use them with the latest Intel Pro Wireless adapter included in Centrino.
So, if you are using a Centrino notebook PC, and you want to upgrade your access point to get better performance, I would suggest you select a product that has been explicitly tested with Intel Pro-Wireless adapters.
