Hi, Final post ( I hope) on CSMA/CD : Wi-Lan Device (superior W-OFDM device ) = Device W Foreign Device = Device F Both devices are forced to share the same space, in the Radio spectrum. 1. Device W and F both note that the "channel" is clear, and begin to send at the same time. 2. Both signals crash 3. Both Devices sense the crash, and initiate a Random Delay 4. Device W's Random Delay ends first So ... Device W takes charge of the channel and sends it's high speed video to your Home Entertainment center. End of boring story.... and hopefully I haven't forgotten what thread I'm on again. Best, Mardy.
