We are talking about WIFI and not just wireless 'wan' links right? In any case, I suspect that the Aerohive 340 can do uber km too with a change to directional antennae and other stuff to boost signal quality. BTW, if you are implying that the Aerohive only has FastEthernet ports, you are dead wrong. They have dual Gigabit ports, have done 20MiB/sec transfers on a single host, support up to 40 clients simultaneously and these were the results in the UAT. A bit short of their claim of 60 clients simultaneously but that is probably human error...we did not have 60 persons to simultaneously click the file download but we managed to get 40 going at the same time.
