Although NETGEAR was the first to launch the opening salvo in the tri-mode / dual-band wireless LAN wars, its WG602 54Mbps Wireless Access Point that it announced a few months ago represents the first-available draft-802.11g Access Point shipped by the company.

Like every other networking product vendor, 3Com has had a tough time during the past few years. We took a look at its OfficeConnect Wireless 11g Cable/DSL Gateway and companion PC Card, and were left wondering where 3Com's spirit of innovation has gone...
