Don't get me wrong, its your/a.n.posters money. But, regardless of new 802.11 specifications, there is nothing new in the underlying technology.
No one can change the basic principle that wireless is a broadcast medium. No matter how much more bandwidth a given channel has, no matter the increase in "speed" a new specification brings, the underlying principles are the same as any other 'standard' that makes use of the shared electromagnetic spectrum.
The higher the frequency, the shorter the range of a signal transmitted at the same power level, and the greater the increase in susceptibility to interference, refraction, and reflection.
The increase in unmoderated users of a shared medium, the greater the probability of packet collision, even taking into account "listen before transmit" (CSMA) techniques. |
