Question about 802.11a

Does it behave like 2.4ghz 802.11b/g?

A side comment on a podcast I was hearing led me to believe that they operate more like switches rather than hubs, as in wireless traffic is not composed of broadcasts.

Thanks
 
CSMA/CA, just like .11b and .11g as well as older 802.11 gear, including 900Mhz equipment. Equivalent to a hub, just a wireless hub. Shared bandwidth. You may have been reading about equipment capable of VLAN segmentation or something but as a principle, its a shared pipe.

Goosemaster, to my knowledge 802.11g is the same thing as 802.11a except at 2.4GHz and with 802.11b backwards compatibility stuff added. g-only mode 802.11g and 802.11a should behave the same.

Implications of full duplex behavior are incorrect.
