Won't work. As soon as the 802.11n router hears *ANY* 802.11g signal,
regardless of SSID, it will switch on flow control to prevent
collisions. In the 40Mhz mode, it can't decode the preamble or
beacons from an 802.11b/g AP or client. So, it has to treat
everything as a potential co-channel user and give them some airtime.
So move to 5.8GHz. There are so few 802.11a networks out there that
802.11n 5.8GHz is, at least for now, the holy grail of wireless
performance.
Sure. Depending on the customer, replacing everything with new
hardware will vary from a financial impossibility to an invitation to
find another consultant. Nothing like a "change everything" solution
to a solving a minor problem. Hmmm.... didn't we just elect a
president on that principle? Oh-oh.
Moving from 802.11g to 802.11n (2.4GHz) is already a "replace
everything" situation, all we're talking about is what gear you put in.
