Look at mister fancy pants over here with 2 letters while the rest of us are using the totally understandable "b" or "g" or "n."

802.11b will always be my favorite. Brings me back to a simpler time.

[–] FapFlop@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I like the 802.11 scheme. :(

[–] CmdrShepard@lemmy.one 15 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I'm only mad that they changed it because I put the effort in to learn the 802.11 standard.
