Frame Bursting Mode?

Does my Netgear DG834GT router support 'frame bursting mode' ?

Just linked it up to an Buffalo ethernet converter and the setup page has this option.

DG834GT router flashed with latest DGTeam firmware.

Thanks

I would think so given that it has the Atheros Turbo G controller.

i doubt it does. and if it did. you would have to have a compatible adapter to work with the dg834gt to benefit from the feature.

Just found this:

'Atheros's Super G technology comprises three parts, only one of which is at issue. One element is frame bursting, in which the shorter packets designed for the slower 802.11b network are rebuilt into longer packets that can dramatically increase network efficiency, according to Barratt. All major Wi-Fi chipmakers are offering frame bursting, which is an element in the upcoming 802.11e standard for improving multimedia streaming and voice over IP service.'

looks like it does support frame busting, i do have a compatible adapter that uses frame bursting.
