Also switching to 5Ghz would probably reduce interference in my area.
I'll be using 5Ghz as well, 2.4 is _swamped_ in my area. I'm going to test OpenBSD again, but I suspect better performance will be had with another BSD and so I'm leaning that way now.

I'm curious what you mean by "better success"? Just better throughput?
