Anyone of you dealers able to get this? :/

Also, slightly confused about this on the web page :

Tech Specs
Model: WMP110
Standards: IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g

Key Features
Much Faster than Wireless-G, but can also connect to Wireless-N, -G and -B networks

I'd like to speed up my wireless network (I have a Linksys WAG300N on the other side) and wondering if this could do it?

Why would you want to? Because, while it appears to talk draft-n...:

... you're still stuck with 2 craptastic antennas down round the back of your box, something you should look at as a ferking great big lump of earthed shielding material - not so good for the propagation of wireless signals.

It seems to not be a native wireless-n device, just (more or less) compatible.

Possibly, but I repeat: why would you want to? If you to the .za site, you'll find this li'l baby: the WMP300N - just look at that sexy li'l sci-fi-esque 3 way antenna array ..on the end of those luvverly cables that put said array above the dreaded box! (um, I think I have to go have a quiet, private moment now)

My thinking is that I'm running at 54mbps (theorteical speed), and more than likely 40mbps (85% signal strength). I copy files across from PC to PC and thought I could get a little more speed (closer to ethernet).

I have no idea what you highlighted - but I'm sure it's bad

Heh, I just highlighted the wireless-n sections of that card's parameters to, well, highlight that it does actually do draft-n (never lose sight of that, the 802.11n spec IS only still a draft, with no sign of finality in sight). But if you already have the WAG300N (take a glance down the RHS to in the "Works Best With" column...) and are looking for more raw speed, it makes sense to get a gen-yoo-wine draft-n adapter ..you want I (try to!) get a price?

Yea please ...
