Super-G and Toshiba Portege M200?

I am purchasing a Toshiba Portege M200 tablet PC (with 802.11g option)
which I think* contains the Atheros AR5001X Wireless Network Adapter.
Can you tell me if this AR5001X is capable of achieving Super-G, 106Mb
speeds (with a Super-G equipped router, of course)? I would also like
to know which routers and access points would provide Super-G with the
Toshiba.

My fear is that despite various routers advertising Super-G, they will
only achieve it with their brand of PC Card wireless adapter, even if
the chip integrated in the Toshiba can do Super-G. My dilemma is
this, I want to network my PC, printers, cable modem, and the Toshiba
M200 (wirelessly). I have not found an 802.11g router that will do
wireless and print server and Super G. So I want to answer the
Super-G question before pursuing an alternate configuration such as:

1) a router with built-in print server, plus wireless access point, or

2) a router, plus wireless access point, plus one or more print
servers (I have two parallel and two USB 1.1 printers)


Thanks alot,
Teffy

That card should be Super-G compatible. For more information about that
model of card, please visit.

They have a nicely formatted page with information about it.
