Dan:

Unless you're running Greenfield mode, which I'm not sure you can even
configure on a Cisco AP, there's full backward compatibility such that
802.11b/g clients will operate at b/g and 802.11n clients (with 2.4 GHz
support, of course) operate at n.  Be aware that mixing 802.11n with
802.11b/g clients will reduce overall performance, but not significantly
enough to devalue running 802.11n.

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone that has deployed 802.11n 1252 AP's can tell
me if you have 802.11g clients and some 802.11n clients all on 2.4ghz,
do the 802.11n clients run at 802.11n and the 802.11g clients run at
802.11g?  Or does everything run at 802.11g?

Thanks,
Dan.
