    It's listed under my broadcom modem. Thing is my home network is G only. It would seem as if this driver setting wouldnt allow me to connect to my home network, yet I am.

    So what does this setting mean?

    There is also the setting for 54g - Auto and 54g - Performance. Should I try them out or no? Also if I change the setting will I beable to go back onto a B network?

    Thanks
