	Li estimated that that in mixed 802.11b and 802.11g networks running standard
	TCP/IP Internet protocols, this will reduce actual throughput to 10Mbit/sec.
	-- while pure 802.11g networks will have actual data rates of around
	20Mbit/sec. Li pointed out that even at these data rates the 802.11g devices
	still outperform 802.11b devices, which have a raw data rate of 11Mbit/sec.
	but an actual throughput of about half that speed.
