WTF is this?

If you have two speed booster products, they will talk to each other faster than 54mbps, somewhere around 75mbps I believe. Just a fancy form of compression really, like 56k modems connecting at 115k.

so you need a 'speed boosted' wireless card for it as well?
 
To get the full benefit out of it, yes. It'll work with normal 54g stuff, just not at the fast speed.

Wrong.

"Speed Booster" uses two wireless channels bonded together to increase the speed, but that means that you're using more of the airspace, so especially if you're in a densely populated area, there's more chance of interference and it not working.

56k modems had NO kind of compression/bonding. The reason they showed at connecting at 115k is that's the speed of the port between the computer and the modem - the speed of the internet connection was always lower than 52kbps (and you'd only get 52kbps on an awesome phone line). A closer feature to Speed Booster would be shotgunning two 56k modems over two phone lines to the same ISP who supported it (which was very very few)
