Wireless TV box take up WIFI bandwidth?

[RobbyD]

Does anyone know if using wireless tv boxes eat up the bandwith on either the 2.4 or 5.8ghz bands?  I'm assuming the 3200 modem only has 2 wifi bands and the tv boxes share this bandwidth. 

thanks

Yes, the wireless Optik boxes consume Wi-Fi bandwidth on the 5GHz band at the rate of some 10’s of Mbps out of the 400 or so delivered by the modem.
