This is not a technical issue. By taking advantage of unlicensed frequencies, 
802.1a/b/g must not cause interference with licensed services, and must accept 
interference from other users, at least in the US. There really is no basis for 
any complaint of lack of service due to interference from any other WLAN or ISM 
device/user.

If you desire a somewhat assured RF medium, explored using licensed 
frequencies, but then you'll have to live with other restraints.
