Trump is a perfect example of a person who ridicules others and notably of being crazy conspiracy theorists regarding the Trump campaign organization conspiring with Russia to influence the U.S. 2016 Presidential Election. For anyone who has been “living off the grid”, that was a couple of years or so ago. Now, of course, Robert Mueller’s Special Council FBI Investigation into this matter has discovered a considerable amount of evidence of leading to criminal charges of about two dozen people convictions directly connected with conspiracy – not withstanding Trump’s oft repeated claims of “No collusion! No collusion!” Over the coming months, if not a year or so, Mueller’s investigation very likely will provide an overwhelming amount of factual evidence proving the conspiracy.
The YFI multi-radio 802.11a/g AP unit station (STA) technology certainly was ahead of its time. It is apparent that most of YFI’s potential customers (e.g., cablecos, telcos, ISPs, etc. and enterprises) of 802.11 wireless LAN technology were instead seduced by the new 802.11 breeds due to their appealing higher maximum information rate numbers provided by new characteristics and so were easily persuaded first to buy 802.11n AP STA units, which of course in turn required their customers (e.g., people, businesses, governments, etc.) to buy new devices (e.g., smartphones, laptops, etc.) with built-in 802.11n services set (SS, a.k.a. “client”) capability.
It’s important to understand, that if YFI’s potential customers (e.g., cablecos, etc.) had instead bought YFI’s multi-radio 801.11a/g AP STA units, then their customers could have continued to use their 802.11a/g capable devices. So, it’s also important to understand that this is the exact result that the big Wi-Fi chip companies intended when they created the new desirable 802.11 breeds with their alluring high maximum performance numbers.
Indeed, it is reasonable to believe that the big Wi-Fi chip companies (a.k.a. “the enterprise” corporations) knew full well that the 802.11n maximum information rates could be only achieved in a green-field environment with certain undemanding use cases, and that it would not perform much better than 802.11a/g in general environments and demanding use cases.
Of course, when 802.11n failed to provide the expected performance, apparently most of YFI’s potential customers (e.g., cablecos, etc.) were again similarly easily persuaded to next buy 802.11ac AP STA units, which of course in turn required their customers (e.g., people, etc.) to buy new devices with 802.11ac client capability. But, of course, 802.11ac similarly is similarly failing to provide performance much better than 802.11a/g in general environments and demanding use cases.
Now, this is a case of the familiar saying “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.”
So, certain of YFI’s potential customers (e.g., cablecos through CableLabs and enterprises like Kroger) have done competitive head-to-head testing of YFI’s multi-radio 802.11a/g AP STA unit solution with competing 802.11ac AP STA units, realistic in general environments and demanding use cases, using 802.11a/g/n/ac SS (“client”) devices. This testing verified that multi-radio 802.11a/g AP STA units allow the creation of higher-performance 802.11 wireless LANs in realistic (non-greenfield) environments and demanding use cases than competing 802.11n/ac AP STA units.
Also, while it is likely that some others of YFI’s potential customers may be fooled a third time by the 802.11ax-2019(?) (i.e., Wi-Fi 6, “the next generation of Wi-Fi®”), but some certainly will be not.
And now we see a Teir 1 has come out with their own data and allowed It to be announced in the form of a press release.
