Draft N is also faster and has better range than 802.11G, which most people consider selling points.
I'm using a Mac G4 iBook from 2005. I don't know if my wireless Airport card is running Draft N. Would I have to buy a Draft N Airport card? Otherwise, I'm thinking the WRT54G may be the way to go, especially since it is half the price of the other ones out there.
