Just so you all know I'm quite happly using my 4 bronze cards around the
house for web surfing...

2 aps both have gold 11mbps and silver 11mbps and I give the 2mbps cards to
laptop users...

Version 6+ made them compatible with other B equipment, before that they
where there own flavour, and they had a turbo mode which apparently spoofed
them up to 8mbps...

Just some information ;)
