Bullshit, your device is at fault and not the protocol. I bought a 802.11ac dongle with external 10dbi gain antennas and have been enjoying <i>extreme</i> speeds and connection strenght throughout the house, not to mention to the routers of 30 of my neighbours.. And that&#x27;s only 5GHz. For comparison, at my desk three walls away I used to get about 40-50nW signal level off my built-in adapter and antenna in my Lenovo laptop. With the new setup - 60mW... The router sends at 100mW. We&#x27;re talking pushing 90MB&#x2F;s+ constantly no matter where in the house with absolutely no connection drops.
