>> I bridged an airport express with an AirPort Extreme to get wifi out to my cabana. The airport express is in the master bedroom about 15-20 feet from the cabana.
>>
>> Problem, I wanted to watch HBOGO on my hubby's ASUS netbook in the cabana. I was using the HBOGO website. No good. Very choppy. Went into the master bedroom, worked just fine. I gave up and used my iPad mini in the cabana with the HBOGO app and it worked perfect except the screen was a bit small. I had the iPad mini on a table so hubby and I could both watch. Why did the iPad work much better?

Is the Asus' Wifi 802.11b, or g, or n ?
