Marketing and theory -- I haven't had a chance to test it myself.

BTW, I'm not regurgitating Extricom's marketing rhetoric when I say you
don't need to worry about channel planning -- their product is designed with
that specifically in mind.  The technical benefits and caveats of this
single-channel architecture, and the possible concerns that a network
planner might have around the requirement to have L1 connectivity from
Extricom's APs to their switch, are better discussed in another forum.

Is that based on marketing, theory (based on the whitepapers and patent
descriptions) or practical experience?
