The goal of this paper: This paper was written to help people understand current wifi technology, so that YOU can make an educated ‘router’ upgrade decision – because there is WAY too much hype out there (especially about wifi speeds) – and router manufacturers’ are directly to blame.

This site is a great resource if you want to understand WiFi and make informed decisions on which WiFi router to buy. It is very old school presentation, but wowsers the detail.
