11n channel width support.

Is there support for 5 and 10 MHz channels with 11n? If not when can it be expected if ever?
Will 11n and/or 5/10MHz be supported with extra channels (4.9 and 2.5 Ghz)

Thank you.

How about reading this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11n-2009#40MHz_in_2.4GHz and u will get answers on your question.

Nop, there is no support to 5 and 10mhz channel width because it’s not possable. To you know meaning of nonoverlapping independent channels?

Your reply is not helpfull and has a very dismissive and rude tone. Please do not give bad advice if you do not understand the question. I see no technical reason why smaller channels would not be available in 11n (MIMO). Basically less bandwidth but with MIMO and the new MCS’es. Another thing to note is that Ubiquity equipment, with their AirMax driver, support 5 and 10 MHz channels in “11n” (they have their own n based TDD type MAC) as well as support for channels from 2.3 to 2.7 GHz on their 2 GHz unit (I assume similar features on their 5GHz devices).

Could someone please provide an official response and not just flames.

Thank you. :slight_smile:

ezanolin don’t let the forum trolls get to you. Some people feel better when they’re jackasses, besides I don’t even know what “To you know meaning of nonoverlapping independent channels?” means… So anyone know anything about 5MHz channel widths with 802.11n?

RouterOS currently doesn’t support 5 and 10MHz channel width due to some technical difficulties and restrictions. Maybe this will be overcome in the future.

I can only assume you mean in relation to n…

Yes as RouterOS already supports 5/10/20/40mhz channels with 802.11g/a. Read the topic title :slight_smile:
