I can't imagine ethernet will go away any time soon. Even if WiFi speeds are able to keep up with it, I can't imagine it will be as reliable or secure.

not sure why/how they would get rid of it I guess they could stop putting ports on motherboards but that would just be a pain in the ass, not the end.

But if Samsung is to be believed they say they solved the interference problem. This is down the road a bit so I guess we will see in a year or two.

might happen but it won't be that soon.

Never, nothing will be as stable as a line. Now maybe they can come up some new cable that can take more information with the same ping/latency.
Wireless always has the chance for interference also. |

Yes I jumped the gun on the title.
what I found searching Wikipedia and yeah I know its not always accurate. "Quote: The 60 GHz signal cannot typically penetrate walls but can propagate off reflections from walls, ceilings, floors and objects using beamforming built into the WiGig system. When roaming away from the main room the protocol can switch to make use of the other lower bands at a much lower rate, but which propagate through walls." this article indicates that the 60GHz signal can not penetrate walls/floors. That's what I'd assumed. That'd mean that the multi-gig wifi signal would be limited to the same room or at best where a reflected signal can be received. That'd mean that simply closing a door would would trigger the signal to revert to back the slower 2.4 or 5GHz bands. I wonder if the plan would allow/require mutiple wired repeaters throughout a building. That said, same room wireless communication at theses speeds would allow for wireless transmission of HD video and audio, simplifying the placement of AV equipment. So in short multi rooms would require wired repeaters most likely unless Samsung has figured this out also. |

NERD MOMENT!
Ethernet was invented as a wireless technology back in 1970s by Bob Metcalf and his team. The "Ether" part of the name referred to the wireless nature of sharing the same frequencies for multiple connections to communicate. All the protocols to deal with packet collisions and re-sending were about the wireless requirements of connecting Hawaiian islands together on a single computer network. Later those packet layer protocols were applied to using coaxial wire to connect computers together then switching made collision detection unnecessary, but all the error correction aspects are still used. Technically, Wi-Fi uses Ethernet protocols. So, technically, Ethernet is growing as Wi-Fi grows. The title of the thread should be "The End of Cabled Networks?" NERD OUT!!! |
