Abstract
A method and apparatus for allowing a configuration of the operation of one or more antennas in a device, such as a gateway device or other network device, is provided. The method and apparatus operate in a manner such that the configuration allows a static configuration of a specific antenna in a multiple antenna device or system. In some cases the accompanying transmission and reception circuit are configured to operate or transact specifically with another device (e.g., network client device).
