That is correct, sir. Again, the only reason why a 802.11g would be better than 802.11b would be in the case where you want to frequently transfer large files between your Pismo and another computer on your network. There is currently no broadband access (cable or DSL) that will use all the bandwidth of 802.11b, so it is really pointless to get 802.11g in the hope of faster transfers from the internet... -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe, trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
