you mean backward compatible to b (obviously, something will be "backward compatible" to itself).

Anyways, g isn't finalized yet and there seems to be some issues with cross-manufacturer/chipset/etc. compatibility among g devices.
For the time being, stick with a+b (a uses a less crowded band so it might be better for those who just seem to not be able to get b to work reliably).

802.11g does not interoperate with a.  It is backwards compatible to g.  The
wave of the future is probably the dual band a+g cards because it works with
both the 2.4 and 5 ghz frequencies and incorporates all 3 standards (well g
is not finalized yet) ;).

Well I could be wrong but I was under the impression that 802.11g
could interoperate with a and b.


Prehaps I need to go read the specs...
