Nagromme Carpal Tunnel Registered: 01/10/08 Posts: 886 Loc: USA	My MacBook Air has WiFi N, which explains why my iPhone (Jaadu, Air Sharing etc.) can't connect to it when I "Create Network." But the Air can obviously connect TO a WiFi G network. So can it also CREATE a WiFi G network? I can't seem to figure out how. This would also be useful for sharing files at meetings, with people who only have WiFi G. TIA _________________________ nagromme STROGG: Change We Can Believe In TeamMacOSX.org

I know my Time Capsule has such options (and I chose NOT to have G compatibility there, for the sake of extra speed/wideband). But I don't see those options on the Mac's "Create Network." So it is G-friendly or not? _________________________ nagromme STROGG: Change We Can Believe In TeamMacOSX.org
