Industry coalition hopes to break 802.11n deadlock

John Blau writes in InfoWorld:

More than two dozen leading manufacturers of wireless LAN equipment have formed an industry coalition aimed at breaking a deadlock in efforts to establish a new, faster Wi-Fi standard.

The Enhanced Wireless Consortium (EWC), announced Monday, hopes to speed ratification of an IEEE 802.11n standard by introducing its own specification with widespread industry support. The industry coalition consists of 27 companies, including Atheros Communications, Broadcom, Cisco Systems, and Intel.
