I have a dlink AGB PCMCIA card I've had few years. The Mikrotik cards I believe are Atheros chipsets. We've used them and other mPCI for backhauls and APs/CPEs.

Leon

Her's does "A" service too, I can't remember why I didn't enable "A" along with/instead of "N", throughput?

The Intel Windows driver *supposedly* supports all WPA & WPA2 variants on both radios. XWLAN and the WPA supplicant *should* support WPA2 with AES on the 5GHz radio, but I have not tested this (I don't have access to an 802.11a AP which does WPA, interestingly enough).

Excellent question, though, and I'd be interested to hear from anyone else with WPA experience on 5GHz.
