Write For SmallNetBuilder

SmallNetBuilder has always depended on talented and knowledgeable contributors to keep our content a-flowin’. Some of our best stuff comes from networking pros who have the time and talent to share what they know with others.

Unfortunately, time is at a premium for folks like that, so I’m constantly looking for new contributors. You can write about any of the topics that we cover on SmallNetBuilder, or even something that we don’t. But we generally want to stick close to the subject of small and not-so-small networks.

Due to shipping logistics, you’ll need to be located in the U.S. if you want to review products. But if you’re writing how-to’s, tutorials, commentary, etc. you can be located anywhere.

You don’t have to be a writing pro, but you do need to be able to write clearly and concisely and a bit of personality doesn’t hurt, either. I’d also like to hear from folks with their own networking-related blogs who are looking for wider exposure (and some extra income).

So if you’re interested, drop me a note. Please be sure to tell me about your area of expertise, include links to past writing and social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, etc.) and, for extra credit, pitch me an article! Thanks!

Linksys Range Plus is Draft 11n in Disguise

Today's announcement by Linksys of its "affordable" Range Plus product line (WRT100, WPC100) is an odd one. The product line is described as using "MIMO" technology to provide extended coverage at a price point around $100. But a look at the FCC Test report reveals the real technology used.

Update:Has Airgo no shame?

Just before Monday broke here on the East coast, Qualcomm (which minutes later announced that it was acquiring Airgo) "announced the availability of the world's first chipset offering full support for Draft 2.0 of the IEEE 802.11n standard". As Glenn Fleishman points out in his post, since Draft 2.0 won't be voted on until March of next year, this announcement is pitching a chipset that is based upon a "draft of a draft".

We all knew that at some point Airgo would come off its mountain and wallow in the pre-standard mud along with Broadcom, Atheros and Marvell. So I guess if you're going to get dirty, you might as well set a new standard. Congratulations to both Airgo and its proud new owner Qualcomm for establishing a new low in WLAN marketing practices.
