FWIU, compatibility. 802.11a is a different frequency. b, g, and n are all backwards compatible. b works on b. g works on b and g. n works on b and g and n. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11 Regards, - Robert _______________________________________________ CWE-LUG mailing list [email protected] http://www.cwelug.org/ http://www.cwelug.org/archives/ http://www.cwelug.org/mailinglist/
