Isn't the Wi-Fi 54 MBps ? If the alleged limit of ten devices are
all going full speed, the 540 MBps is even faster than Verizon
FiOS.

I missed the original post but ethernet, wired or wireless, can only
carry one conversation at a time. Whatever the limit on the number of
nodes that an AirPort has, aggregate bandwidth of the nodes isn't it.

So?

Tom, I'm not sure what this means.

Also, in response to hh above, this has been an eye-opening experience for me.
I stopped into the Verizon FiOS shop again yesterday and asked just a couple
of basic questions (like, how do I keep the wireless network secure and how
would I add additional wireless computers to the network?) and sales reps
just didn't have a clue. One of them actually told me "It's a tekky thing."

It could also be they recognize that you aren't all that familiar with
the concepts and are skirting the issue rather than taking time to
educate you.
