Options

  • AIt does not give you enough bandwidth to collect data coming from all of the adapters
  • BNo USB 3.0 hub provides enough power for all the adapters
  • CIt generates noise in the 2.4 GHz band, giving you a false perception of the noise floor
  • DIt generates noise in the 5 GHz band, giving you a false perception of the noise floor
