Jason, I've spent countless hours looking into that myself...  
unfortunately the problem is that your "Airport software" doesn't  
support N devices. So what I did, is buy one of these  Amazon.com:  
TRENDnet 300 Mbps Dual Band Wireless N USB Adapter TEW-664UB (Version  
v1.0R): Electronics it's dual band which means you get 802.11n  
(2.4ghz) or 802.11n (5ghz) it's the only US2 dongle that supports 5ghz  
that I know of. I have a usb 2.0 card installed in my G5 and I plug  
this adapter into the "internal" port of the card and it works awesome  
and what's really cool is even though I need the trendnet driver to  
operate it, once the driver launches, I can simply quit the software  
and it works flawlessly behind the scenes (like an Airport device)...  
hope this helps! Jeff
