    Question How the speed affected in MU-MIMO if it does not have sufficient antenna? [Theoretically]

    To my understanding, the difference between SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO is that MU-MIMO technology can share idle bandwidth to other devices while the router is connecting to one device, for example, if you have a router which is 2T2R (80Mhz), it allows two devices [1T1R (80Mhz)] communicating...

    What i've understood is that latency is the time it takes for a signal to travel from point A to point B and to come back from point B to point A. Download/Upload speed would be the amount of data that is Received or Sent in 1 "trip", so, in theory, they should be unrelated. My question is...
