In this article a new waveband is discussed for Wi-Fi. A new band for Wi-Fi is a big deal because it means that with millions of people trying to use a Wi-Fi system there is lots of congestion and "lag" causing the system to slow dramatically.
Glossary
Waveband - A range of frequencies, especially radio frequencies, such as those assigned to communication transmissions.
With a new Waveband the public can use the whole system becomes less congested and more open to higher speeds and download rates for data and applications. It's a bit like after being stuck behind a Volvo driver in a one lane street when suddenly a second lane emerges and you're able to blast past them leaving a cloud of dust and burnt rubber in your wake.
But that is not all, as this new band has been added to laptops and other Wi-Fi using equipment we now have 2 wireless networks for different tasks making this setup very efficient indeed;
"Five gigahertz lets you create what we call an 'entertainment-grade' network for online gaming from your Xbox or PlayStation as well as moving all your video and audio, all your high definition multimedia content, around your home to a TV screen ... At the same time you can keep 2.4GHz for what we'd classify as your data network, which is email and web browsing and things like that." says Graeme Reardon, regional director for Linksys Australia and New Zealand.
Seeing as though this technology has been used before but was not available to the public. This technology is going to be immensely popular until a new Waveband is released. As well as seeing the fact that the Wi-Fi compatibility for this new Waveband will be installed in all Wi-Fi using products with or without your consent deems that this new advancement will be here to stay until a new shiny object comes into play and our easily distractible minds pay more attention to this new contender.
