But, "Osprey" returns no useful results that I can find, so it must be some internal code name for a project. If you can be more specific about exactly what chipsets/NICs this includes it would be useful for those of us without NDAs or other internal Atheros/Qualcomm connections. As far as shipping chipsets go (perhaps from the list below) http://www.qca.qualcomm.com/technology/technology.php?nav1=47 What is considered the top-end Atheros chip for fastest/best 3x3 MIMO speeds? Maybe 9390 (EW-DNXA-H1 for instance?) is expected to be better than 9380? Thanks, Ben -- Ben Greear Candela Technologies Inc http://www.candelatech.com
