Netgear HE102 802.11a on the Deals page
Is this compatible with other standards of wireless such as B and G? The description is vague about it.

I would suggest you NOT buy an 802.11A router. It's getting to be old technology. If you really want the "A" ability, I'd suggest paying a little more for an A/G router so at least you're current...

 Or get B+G... G for the speed & security, B for the public WAPs. 802.11a won't be around much longer, IMHO. |

A is only for those who have a congested 2.4Ghz band at home. For instance, if you have those aggressive Panasonic Gigaset phones.

That couldn't be more true, Apex. I have one of those panasonic phones, and albeit it works great, occasionally it fudges with my wireless network and I have to change the channel that it's broadcasting on.
