the wifi limits

but what do you think of the idea itself to use tmp as an extra channel for wifi? -
mniip:
Wifi already stores its channel in temporary
I was gonna say that...
So yeah, WIFI's tmp is already used for colour/channel, so this idea wouldn't work.
Also, I bet you didn't know, but...
WIFI's max temperature is higher than you think:
523614View Save 523614
As far as I am aware, this is the highest savable temperature... I'm not sure if it works though.
Edit: It doesn't work, so nevermind.
I wish it did... -
ok thanks for the information. also kind of logic it is used for that. but isn't the tmp just used for colour not for channels????
also why bother about the color of wifi i guess they could change that though....
now we are going to wait for someone to suggest if the ctype can be used for channels XDXD (joke)
-
I think it would be better to just decrease the temperature gap between channels. It would be harder to set the channels, but still easier to set than tmp.
However, the problem remains that it makes WIFI more difficult to use:Catelite:
there aren't any simple ways to increase the number that wouldn't become maddening to deal with after a while
Also, read these old threads:

mmm that would also be an option, i would set the current temp for a channel divided through 2 that means you would have twice the amount of channels.
sorry, didn't saw the old threads if you type in wifi channels you get a bunch of the latest suggested things and the old are almost at the very end. (yeah probably you all will be like use wifi tmp as search)
problem with the old threads is that they are pushed away by the new threads... -
I'm pretty sure wifi already uses tmp for its channel anyway. It checks heat and then uses it to modify tmp, which becomes its channel. Or something.
I randomly just pictured in my head simply making a loop-around function so that when the heat exceeds a certain value, a second variable increases by one, making an entirely new set of tmp values for wifi.
...But interpreted literally, that sounds like both a pain to implement and also a pain to work with.q -

yes i see... too bad it doesn't just uses temp for that but i guess that would be impossible.
in the old threads they were talking about a wifi changing property tool that sounded like a good idea for me. Maybe they should implent that function into the property changing tool we have now...
mm then you would need to heat a lot that would indeed be a pain to work with and to implent,if i understand correctly what you mean. -
Why not make a wifi 2 and have it do the same thing? or maybe make wifi go in increments of 50 and figure out a way to slow down the heating process.
