Benchmark
It has been said that the FritzBox 7312's WLAN is okay for a flat, but too weak for a house. The FritzBox 7270's WLAN is supposed to be strong enough for a house, it has three antennas etc.. I wanted to test this. So I put my Latitude 2100 into a cellar room and started the command
iwlist scanning | grep -Ei "quality|essid"
I used the same command with a FritzBox 7312 and with a FritzBox 7270 with the same laptop with the same distribution on the same position, same kernel etc. The result was
| device | quality of WLAN |
|---|---|
| FritzBox 7312 | 31/70 |
| FritzBox 7270 | 41/70 |
