Why nobody's ever been busted under trades descriptions I don't know :/

It's because of the clever use of the wording 'up to'!

All I can say is I'd sure like to meet the bloke who managed 54Mbit/sec on
exactly one occasion so that they could legitimately claim this.


That'll be me then - 54Mbit with wireless router downstairs, laptop
upstairs.

3Com 11g/b wireless router, IBM Thinkpad with built in 11b/g adapter.

Was that measurable throughput (with allowances for overhead) or just what
the Windows driver reported - only some of the Windows drivers are known
to lie a little.

We've never managed to get near that where I work, despite a variety of
"pro-quality" base stations and a wide variety of cards on the client.
