In general, ethernet doesn't do collision detect now - practically every wired ethernet goes from a machine to a switch on a full duplex link, with the switch having buffers to cope with collisions - worst case the second packet is discarded, no need to back off at a random interval.
Does wireless ethernet have CSMA/CD, or is it some better time based protocol?
- vlovich123 6y agoBoth. There’s collision detection for interference. The actual devices on the AP itself time slice access.
- scurvy 6y agoYeah the main difference is wireless devices use Collision Avoidance rather than Collision Detection.
