Welcome to the forums :emotion-21:     Wireless N is currently the fastest broadband speed available, but don't worry if your router only supports wireless G. Wireless N is backwards compatible, so the new laptop will still be able to connect to your router just fine :emotion-5:
Hello! I am thinking about getting a nice Dell laptop for myself and it has all the bells and whistles. The problem I am sooo confused about the network card / routers N G ???? The model I am looking at has the Dell Wireless 1520 802.11N Half Mini Card. I am on bellsouth/att and they have a 'g' network ???
