I've had a ton of wireless interference lately, but i believe this is due to being in the LA area and other major metro areas. have i shot myself in the foot by giving antennas to each of them? or was there some kind of advantage to using 2 antennas for the 4 networked units? in my head...it seems like the right move...but wanted some more expert opinions.
