Where 'would' you notice the difference?
Well a client that supported 3 streams would be able to get a faster connection than the typical 2 or 1 stream clients. Of course it is possible that in some cases the 4 antenna system would get a better connection to a client and hence slightly faster just due to the position the antennas happen to be in. I have no idea how likely that is. Now a MU-MIMO router could split the streams to different clients at the same time as far as I understand it, but that is not a feature of these routers. Also MU-MIMO only works if the client devices also support the protocol, and almost none do yet. -- Len Sorensen
