Hi,
We have the new N-Type wireless adapter (Atheros 11N) installed into a RB800 with licence level 6. We have reports that some older pc’s are having issues connecting to the unit even though we have it set to b/g/n.
Here are the settings in the wireless:

I have read about the new N-type adapter and there are still a few things that confuse me.
- Should i set up Nstreme? I have read that you can have disconnecting issues with this.
- I have only 1 antenna connected. HT TX/RX chain set to 0.
- What are the HT AMPDU Priorities?
- If i set to N-only will the other b/g PC’s still be able to connect as its backward compatable? Cant find explination for this.
- Should we have 2 antennas in use when there is ‘N’ involved?
Any information is greatly appreciated.
