Hi
We have a double issue here:
1) It’s a problem because “not enough information was given"
2) It’s a problem because “we are talking about it to much”
Sorry, but there is absolutely no way at all both of those criteria can
be met by me.
I do believe that WiFi time protocols are an on topic item for TimeNuts.
Given our ability to wander off topic for weeks on some subjects, it is
a bit unclear just where those bounds actually are.
I also believe that ping data is one way to come up with an upper bound on
just how awful WiFi timing can be. If others have a similar single shot measure
of WiFi round trip that can be run on a wide range of devices, I’d certainly be just
as interested in that.
