Cant connect 802.11b SDIO to 802.11n router

I have been using a Spectec 802.11b SDIO adapter to connect the the internet with my ipaq 1940 via my home network. I have just replaced my Netgear DG834GT router with a Netgear DG834N, which is 802.11n spec. However since changing the router I seem to be unable to connect using the pda.

I did manage to get it to connect when I had the router set on the "b and g" setting, but when its set to "up to 270Mbs" it won't connect to the network. I want to keep the "up to 270Mbs" setting on the router as I've recently bought a high speed adapter for my laptop so that I connect with full speed when using that.

When I read through the text in the router configurator screen it indicates that b and g equipment should still work when its set to "up to 270Mbs". Am I doing something wrong?

Has anyone else used a Spectec SDIO 820.11b card with this, or any other 802.11n router?

andy, I had the same setup, and it worked fine. Maybe you just need to hard-restart the iPAQ?
