    I have a Linksys WRT150N wireless-N router. I have a Dell Wireless 1505 Draft 802.11n WLAN Mini-Card. When I put my cursor over my network in the Windows Wireless Manager, it shows says "Radio Type: 802.11g". Instead of 802.11n. In the Windows Wireless Configuration Utility, I can see my network is B/G/N. In my router settings, when I set my settings to Mixed or Wireless-N only, nothing changes. How can I be sure I'm running connected using Wireless-N in my network? I should be. All my devices are working properly. I just don't know why Wireless Manager shows "Radio Type: 802.11g". Any ideas?
