Um, I'm afraid it is true. You know that != means "not equal", right?
125 Mbps = Afterburner (used in Speedboost) = Broadcom chip = Apples 108 Mbps = SuperG = Atheros chip = Oranges 540 Mbps = 802.11n = various chips = Grapes So I wouldn't take Broadcom results to imply the same behavior for all Atheros implementations. I wish I could wait for low priced 802.11n, but can't...

Unfortunately both. >FWIW > >Speedboost != "108Mbps" != Wireless N > > Apples != Oranges != Grapes Sorry but that's not true. N is 12 times faster than G & transmits 4x further. I was getting 250+ Mbps for the short time I had it running & I was only at 85% signal according to the Linksys software & also according to Total Commander's transfer rate when transferring 4.5g of DVD to my HTPC. <http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?c=L_Promotion_C2&childpagename=US% 2FLayout&cid=1153780880474&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper> Therefore I would buy the cheapest just to get by until N becomes the standard & this is what I'm going to do but I'm waiting til N is the standard in laptops before buying another. ----------+---------- Wayne D.
