I don't have any experience with replaytv, but I do have some experience with wifi and heavy bandwidth issues. Depending on variables such as link quality and data rate your throughput can range quite a bit. In my experience, in an ideal wifi network the maximun throughput is ~4Mbs. Of course the protocal you use to transmit the data is also a factor (http vs smb, http will be considerable faster for example). I don't have any hard and fast numbers to offer you. I just wanted to point out a couple things you may not have thought of. BTW, the DWL-900+ Ben speaks of also does 22Mbs, hence the '+', the only caveat is the lack of linux drivers for these cards. -- Linux Administrator || Technology Specialist || Wifi Engineer http://autonomous.tv/~spencer/resume/ || spencer at autonomous.tv Key fingerprint = 173B 8760 E59F DBF8 6FD2 68F8 ABA2 AB08 49C7 4754 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
