[QUOTE="kaidomac, post: 214429, member: 15110"] Do you live in a crowded area? I can see that being a good reason to get 802.11a. One of the downers is that most people and companies run 802.11b/g, so if your neighbor goes out and buys an 802.11a card for his computer, he won't be compatible if he goes anywhere. Unless you can convince him to buy a MacBook :) If you pick up a router that supports A/B/G, you'd be totally covered. Also did you punch your own keystone jacks for your CAT5 job? I'm planning on doing that this summer, as I was just running cable through holes in the wall before (pretty messy). [/QUOTE]
