Since 802.11g is significantly slower than 100-base-T it does not make sense to combine them. Instead you take a wireless router and plug it into a gigabit router. Plus, outside of PowerMacs, there are not many computers that come with gigabit yet in the consumer space.

I operate a digital photo capture business. Part of this is from a location van. All my machines are connected via gigabit, but if I had 1 of these, I could offer internet services to my clients.
Remote enough?
