Hi <br />
I have a D-LINK 655 router with 802.11n ( 1.21EU, &nbsp;2008/11/03 ) and a old IBM T42 laptop with &nbsp;a network card compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g, not the n-standard.<br />
<br />
When i have the D-LINK enabled in mixed mode 802.11n with with 802.11g, can my laptop not connect to the wireless network. <br />
<br />
My security is set to WPA personal, Auto (WPA OR WPA2) and Cifer Type (TKIP and AES). <br />
<br />
When i only enable 802.11g and/or 802.11b in mixed mode, are there no problems with the connection.<br />
<br />
But why can i not have the 802.11n standard enabled in my AP/router?

Wireless networking is anything related to the transfer of data between two (or more) devices without the use of a physical connection, ranging from getting advice on a new Bluetooth headset to configuring sophisticated enterprise level networks.
