Thanks to all of you who have responded to my call for reviewers. I’m trying to get back to everyone, but if I don’t, please accept my apologies.

As I’ve been wading through the responses to my previous post, it occurred to me that there’s another way to approach this. If you’ve got an article that you’d like to write, then send me a short pitch or outline. Or even better, send me enough of the article so that I can get an idea of your writing style and see if you can grab my interest enough to make me want to read more.

Articles can be on most any networking-related topic, but our readers really like how-to’s, tutorials or short articles on solving networking problems. So if you’ve got something you’re itching to write about, send me your pitch.

And yes, we will pay you for your work!

11n Draft 2.0 gear not working yet, but does anyone really care?

I share Glenn Fleishman's disappointment with this week's announcement by the Wi-Fi Alliance that they have only begun their certification testing. But judging from what I've seen so far, getting draft 11n gear up to spec is going to be a long, difficult process.

I spent a few days last week testing a D-Link DIR-655 router and DWA-652 Cardbus card, which are based on Atheros XSPAN silicon. These are the first products to have firmware and drivers posted that allegedly implement 11n Draft 2.0 compliance. My primary focus was to see whether the legacy protection mechanisms added in 802.11n Draft 2.0 were working in actual product.
