That is an excellent point. If there are two radios per AP, then gigabit uplinks would be required.

I also have to share something that my students brought up last week. We were talking about controllers and it seemed to us that today's controllers are going to have to be replaced if/when 802.11n starts being the standard way to setup enterprise Wi-Fi. This certainly lends credence to the idea of going with standalone APs or unified LAN/WLAN switches rather than separate controller appliances because the upgrade should be less of a hassle. We'll see, though. Maybe today's controllers will be able to handle 802.11n as a simple AP upgrade.

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.
