is the netgear DG834GT 802.11b backward compatible ?

Hi there,

I'd like to go wireless and I am tempted by the netgear DG834GT (adsl
modem
wifi router). But since I have a hx4700 PDA doing only 802.11b, I'd like
to
know whether the DG834GT is 802.11b backward compatible ?

thanks,

Olivier

Yes, .11b, g and their own turbo (Super G) mode.

Thanks. I've read the datasheet, but it says only "Standards Capability:
802.11g"...

Then keep reading it until you get to the second paragraph on page 1:

Faster Than Ever

The DG834GT gives you instant connectivity with or without wires, and
works with your existing 802.11b devices as well as your new 54 Mbps
802.11g and Super G devices.
