So, my new gaming computer contains an Asus P5E3 Premium with WifiAPn, capable of using the N antenna on my Netgear Router. However, I am unable to connect to N...just G. The router says I am broadcasting, and I named the G and N bands differently, hoping that I would be able to spot them in the connections window, but to no avail. The G is maxed out and fairly quick but I would like to be able to use the unused bands. I am running Vista Ultimate 64 bit. Has anyone had any problems like this?
Thanks!

Do you have a N antenna?
Here's the router description....

Here's the mobo specs from NE:

So the router should have internal N antenna's (the Wireless N band you came name, leading me to believe it has it's own connection), and the ones that come with the mobo should be capable of it as well.....I've still got to be missing something though....
