Video - Coming to a WLAN Near You
By Craig Mathias, Farpoint Group

I've lately been experimenting with a new idea, but one that I think will become common over the next few years. What I'm doing is building a wireless media facility in my home. The rule is that it needs to provide all common communications and entertainment capabilities (telephone, data networking, videoconferencing, and watching TV and videos, for example), but the only wires allowed into the room are the AC power lines that are already there. This is much more difficult than you might think, and it's beyond the capabilities of most of today's wireless LANs. I've lately been experimenting with advanced technologies like MIMO and other multiple-antenna implementations to find a product that will work.

Hi, great blog by the way - didn't think you'd mind me posting this anonymously - as you do allow anonymous posts ;-).

Anyone tried this Skype program yet for free telephone calls over the internet? A guy at work uses it all the time and because he signed all his friends and relatives up he saves a fortune on his calls. Might be worth a go.

Good luck with the blog
