I have a netgear WGT624(atheros inside) and it is one of those crazy 802.11 b/g that will do double rate (108Mbps). After booting into XP, it pops up saying I have connected at 108Mbps! Crazy stuff, I doubt it is supported in MacOS, but seems to be a hidden feature. Anybody else notice this? :P

i find it odd that apple would not equip their flagship laptop with a 108mbps card in os x.. it doesnt make much sense.. are you sure aiport extreme is only 54mbps?

 

edit: yup.. just checked the airport extreme card on apple.. only 54 mbps.. i suppose its not a big issue though if you're just doing same basic surfing, only really comes into play if you are doing heavy dl'ing, or online gaming.
