On the gigabit uplink thing....I have some input on that one.

Most of today's APs have dual radios - many have dual a/g radios instead of just a single A and single G. I don't know if that trend will continue with 802.11n, but I'm guessing it will - meaning each AP (thick or thin) will have two radios capable of being set to any 2.4 or 5 GHz channel. That's about 300 Mbps of throughput from a single AP. If the plan is to replace the wired edge completely - and I think many companies will opt to do that over time - then 802.11n APs will be more and more saturated over a short period of time.

Success Stories

I literally just came out of the testing centre having taken the CWDP exam. The certification process opened my mind to different techniques and solutions. This knowledge can only broaden your perspective. Great job, CWNP, you have a great thing going on here.

Working through the CWNP coursework and certifications helped not only to deepen my technical knowledge and understanding, but also it boosted my confidence. The hard work it took to earn my CWNE has been rewarding in so many ways.

I want to commend you and all at CWNP for having a great organization. You really 'raise the bar' on knowing Wi-Fi well. I have learned a ton of information that is helping my job experience and personal career goals, because of my CWAP/CWDP/CWSP studies. Kudos to all at CWNP.
