Nowsaday, the AP HW quite powerful, I believe no significant degrade. Anyone has such research on this or any papers provide such information from theorrtical point of view.

Same<SPAN style="font-size: 10pt;"> AP broadcast two SSID, one encryption is disable and one with WAP, customer always complain slow response when connect to the encryption SSID while no encryption one performance is normal, seem problem not related to the singal strength, wonder performance was degraded as traffic need to encrypt and deencryp. Any idea ?</SPAN></P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 15 Feb 2013 09:59:27 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/wireless/encrypted-and-unencrypted-wifi-performance/m-p/2170928#M160163 YUEN WAI NAM 2013-02-15T09:59:27Z
