Hi, My name is Eric Moyers. I am a Network Support Engineer in the Cisco Small Business Support Center. Thank you for using the Cisco Community Post Forums.
Let me clarify one thing that my colleague mentioned above. During B/G/N mixed mode, if you have 3 devices connected at N and a G device then connects. The N speeds will start negotiating at G speeds. As well, if you then have a B device connect, the G and N devices will start negotiating at B speeds.
Your data rate will only be as fast as your slowest device.
Thanks
