Question about WiFi and interfearance.

[LungExpansion]

If all my neighbors have wifi and I get wifi could thiers interfear with my bandwidth?

Also if one neighbor has 802.11B will that drop the rest of us down to 802.11b speed since it could be detected?

Question 1 - Yes, maybe, but there are several channels to choose from for this reason.

Question 2 - No.

It is possible if you have old (one of the very early release) of 802.11.g.

Most of the recent 802.11g would not be pulled down by the presense of 802.11b signal.

Thanks guys. With all the 2.4ghz phones and wifi's in my area I was afraid I would get speed in the K because of all the signals in the area.
