Intel's rate at 4 Mbits, Lucents rate about the same. Check zdnet for the
summary. FH gear does 1 Mbit, most of the DSS vendors are squarely in the 4
Mbit range. According to zdnet, the Cisco Aironet stuff did 6 Mbits.

Your mileage varies according to the number of clients..

You can get 5.x Ghz radios in the 100 mbit throughput range, but I've only
seen point to point 5.x Ghz radios.
