They are not standard though. I.E to get 108Mbps out of a Netgear router you also need a Netgear adapter in your computer.

D-link router, D-link adapter etc

So anyone that a laptop with built in wireless is only going to get 54Mbps from a '108' router anyway

The standard routers that will do that quick are going to be the Wireless N ones.

What is the point of Virgin supplying a 108Mbps router for a net connection that will go a maximum of 20Mbps anyway?
