You might check out whether there are any 802.11g bridges out there.  I 
only have a "b" WAP so it doesn't matter to me, and I got a D-Link bridge 
for my network once I get this thing down into the living room.  One 
warning about the D-Link bridge:  it claims to be configurable from any OS, 
but currently can only be configured using Internet Explorer 6.0; heavy 
javascript that relies on the windows version of JS is the culprit.  Aside 
from that complaint, the bridge works very well--just run a short ether 
cable from the onboard network port (saves me a card slot) to the bridge 
and voila, I'm on the network.  The bridge was around the same price as a 
good 802.11b card and as I say, saves a slot.
