A tip of the hat to Dave Rakowski for the link to a great NYT Personal Tech section article today on the state of wireless networking for our homes. Yardena Arar’s article covers the latest in WiFi tech and the rationale for upgrading older 802.11b and g networks to the new (faster!) 802.11n routers. She also addresses powerline networking – which many seem to overlook as a solid high-speed hybrid wired/wireless home networking approach. Well worth a read here. The only downside of the piece is the missed opportunity to stress the critical importance of securing home wireless networks to protect against all the bad guys out there who would love to steal personal and financial information.
