Awesome can't wait to try this tonight. I'd love to see how it affects range on my router.

I'm trying to figure out why HTC didn't just release the phone with Wireless N enabled? Is there something we should know about with Wireless N on the Evo? Will it eat up battery way more than the 4G being enabled? I guess people that change it to wireless should probably post how their battery life reacts to it...thats the only way of knowing what it will do. I knew before the Evo was released that it had a Wireless Adapter, but was locked into Wireless G by default...I guess we will find out soon.

Did this and so far...? I guess it's working okay. My battery was almost dead so I can't really post about a battery drain. I'll see how goes it.

Am I the only one that doesn't really see the point in this? Assuming the Evo can actually handle the ~8MB/s throughput cap on the 100Mbit connection, what files are you going to be transferring that you need the bandwidth for, that you wouldn't just hook up to USB to do?

IMO it's just a battery waste... We don't have 100Mbit internet connections yet, so the only use for it would be file transfer, which would still be faster over USB.

You SHOULD have to have root user permissions to modify the system files. I don't see any mention in the post though.

Well it would increase wifi range. I get a weak signal from my living room to my bedroom. But with N enable I could get a slightly stronger signal. Also some people dont get a good 3G coverage so they count on wifi.

Yeah most residential connections cannot achieve more than 20 - 30 Mbps... still good to have.

I just wanted it because I was forced not to have it. I don't like the idea of something I buy being capable of so much more and being told I'm not allowed.
