Hi all,

I'm getting ready to buy one of Apple's newest Airport Extremes. However, I'd really like to have an 802.11N bridge for my slingbox in the other room. Does anyone know if these exist yet?

doubtful, its pretty early, and alot of compaines probably aren't going to hop on the Draft-N wagon after what happened with draft-G
 
Almost every major networking company has Draft-N products, actually. I just can't find any bridges. But what about access points / routers that can operate in this mode?

Maybe the Airport Express will see an update to N, but until then you might have to buy another Airport Extreme. Sad... but hopefully the technology will catch up quickly.
 
I believe I saw a netgear Wireless N bridge at BestBuy last night, my friend and I were trying to find the most expensive routers we could find, and stumbled across it. Now, I'm not 100% sure it was a Wifi N ethernet bridge, but I think it may have been.
