I need examples of municipalities, states, and so on, that have switched to

Sorry for the stream of replies here, but do you know if it's using

earlier releases, but maybe not in current r

802.11b/g are also called "Wi-Fi" and "wireless Ethernet".
802.11a/n aren't needed but also don't count against.
