  Olympics: 802.11 fails to make the cut
Time: 12:41 EST/17:41 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Guillaume Hיbert

The International Olympic Committee said Monday that equipment based on wireless-networking staple 802.11 won't be used to run operations of any Games until at least 2008 because of security and performance concerns. "Security concerns have been in our minds before and after Sept. 11," said Sharon Kingman, telecommunications managing director of the 2002 Winter Games. "One looks at 802.11 as a big free-for-all. We felt it was better and safer to use landlines."
