this thread is a bit confusing, so...to clarify--

if you use an ethernet cable between the *wired* port on the back of the squeezebox and the 802.11g access point, that should work just dandy.

in this solution, the 802.11b on the squeezebox is *unused*.

(of course, this will leave you wondering why you spent the extra $80 for the wireless version, but that topic i'm sure has been already talked to death... ;) )

Sorry if I've given wrong info ;-)

That's not entirely true. The NIC on the SB is only capable of 10Mb
half duplex speeds which are well under what 802.11g is capable of.

It's a limitation of the CPU used by Squeezebox.

But if you connect SB to a 'G' wireless access point via
ethernet, then you'll get full 'G' speed networking through your 'G' access point.

I am using wireless version of squeezebox, I wonder if I
connect squeezebox with an accesspoint that support G would I be able to get the full function of it? I remember seeing some where that I cannot simply upgrade the PCMCIA card inside because of the limitation in buffer and something else?
