wifi tv antenna count

[Dave Taht]

It is still not well understood that wifi performance is dragged down
by the performance of the most distant and demanding device, despite
what I hope is wide knowledge of the wifi performance anomaly (
https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/1208921 ) and the related work in
"Ending the anomaly".

It occurred to me, today, while wrestling with a tv struggling to
stream 4k video over wifi, that perhaps it was possible to determine
what tvs had more than one wifi antenna, and how well they were being
used (total airtime).

Is anyone tracking that? Simple methods like scraping the sales lit
might be used, and or instrumenting the APs.

Hi Dave,

Very few, if any, TV specs list that information. It's very hard to determine TV Ethernet port speed a priori, much less Wi-Fi antenna count, even for high end TVs. In fact, I'd assume they all use the minimum number of antennas required for the supported spec. I wire my TVs into my home network for exactly the same reasons you're currently experiencing.
