Welcome to the MacNN Forums!

The better question would be "will I be able to get the super-high speeds my "draft-N" AirPort card can get with an AirPort Base Station?" To that I have to say "I don't know." Right now, there seems to be a fairly stable "draft-N" standard, but it's not really a standard. Since it's not a real standard, companies are free to implement what parts of it they want, and to do other things that are not necessarily widely compatible. Apple says their AirPort Extreme is interoperable with WiFi certified A, B, and G equipment, but they don't say anything about compatibility with draft N equipment. It comes down to the fact that there are no guarantees that ANY "draft N" equipment will work with any other manufacturer's equipment. I haven't found anything that says Linksys and Apple work together on draft N, so I can't advise you to go with this product if you're really interested in the N functionality.
