<![CDATA[Default LoPy 4 Wi-FI 802.11: b or n?]]>Hi everyone,

I'm new to Wi-Fi and I don't understand if the default Wi-Fi my LoPy is using is the 802.11 b or n.

I read they have different data rates (higher for n) and transmission powers (20 dBm for b and 14 for n), so maybe the chip switch from 802.11 b to 802.11 n only when an higher DR is needed, but it seems from my measurements of range that the lower transmission power is used. Does anyone know if the LoPy 4 boards have as default setting the 802.11 n Wi-Fi as I believe?

Thanks in advance

Posting here just in case someone will look for the answer.
