RE:Will spectrum slicing wifi START UP where ............ I'll start here, at the start.
"Edgewater Wireless made a strategic pivot in 2015 when it became apparent that legacy single channel wi-fi was tripping over their own feet"
This is if course complete BS. Wifi3 was built by Engim for high density. The 2003 Tolly report was done to highlight high density performance. I guess Duane had no idea what he was buying. Or he did and as Weasley likes to say it was marketing. Which is certainly how I see it. When you have owned a product for over half a decade and need to do a re-boot call the marketing dept.
Wht can be said definitively now is wifi is performing at very high levels. The idea anyone needs a chip from a company that can't seem to make chips is ridiculous.
"Hence, contrary to what some detractors stipulate here, 2003 -2016 proves to represent more of a failure by the legacy industry than YFI."
This is objectively the dumbest statement ever written. It's pure unadulterated stupidity. In that 13 year period wifi continued to grow and improve, becoming the glue that connects the online world. For clarity, since Weasley apparently lives in the dark Yfi did not even exist until 2011. In the years 2011-2016 Yfi did get halted for failure to submit financials. And it had no business success. So how you can compare Yfi to the wifi industry on a relative performance basis, and claim Yfi was more successful is just too funny.
"A failure to solve the performance problems, and a failure to recognize, and adopt the solution that had been knocking on their doors for years"
This is hilarious. The wifi sector has continuously improved product performance. Yfi, nit so much. And it's funny Weasley blames the industry for wifi3 not being adopted. Note to Weasley; if people aren't buying your product there's a reason.
"2016 represents a pivot from some in the industry."
There was no pivot. Yfi got invited to a late stage incubator that didn't turn out a single winner and was abandoned after three rounds. There is zero evidence that any CEO/COO handpicked anyone. Weasley just makes up lies to bolster his trash.
Dual Channel Wifi. LOL. Nice nothingburger ya got there.
Such a typical Weasley post. Nothing but lies and distortions.

Edgewater Wireless made a strategic pivot in 2015 when it became apparent that legacy single channel wi-fi was tripping over their own feet trying to service high density wi-fi usage with single channel wifi. The wifi problems service providers were experiencing were popping up faster than dandelions in the spring. More AP`s, more antennas, more speed, and more money was engaged to solve the problemst, and all to little avail. Ironically, the only thing that was not considered to be a solution was spectrum slicing wi-fi. It is now fruitless to guess exactly why this technology was ignored by the industry at large because the answer may be as simple as the power of branding. The continulal mantra being that more speed was just around the corner with the new emerging standard. The POC and pilot by Liberty Global clearly exemplified that speed was not the antidote.
Hence, contrary to what some detractors stipulate here, 2003 -2016 proves to represent more of a failure by the legacy industry than YFI. A failure to solve the performance problems, and a failure to recognize, and adopt the solution that had been knocking on their doors for years.
2016 represents a pivot from some in the industry. In particular it was Cable Labs supported by some top CEO and CTO`s of major global service provider members who selectively invited YFI to UpRamp. What followed was intensive testing by Kyrio Labs and YFI became part of their family. The road to 10G was born, Dual Channel WiFi, DOCSIS 4.0, WiFi6 &E, and here were are today awaiting the standardization of WiFi7 and whether YFI will jump through the remaining hoops to have a scaled WiFi7 chip for licencing and sale.
If you were interested in guessing as to whether YFI will be at the table with a WiFi7 chip or not, it might help to become not only familliar with all the remaining hoops it is necessary to jump through, but also the unlimited strategies that can be employed in doing so.
As my buddy Willy Blake once said: "What is now proved was only imagined."
