Hey, back again. I need to check to se if my two imacs can use the 802.11n internet. Is there a way to check ito make sure i can download it for each on. I know about the network utility to see if you already have it, but i want to make sure their both compatible.

One is a 17'' intel core duo 1.83 GHZ
another is a 17'' Intel core duo 2.00 GHz ( i'll check on that)

I believe you need the Core2Duo chipset for 802.11n. There may be 3rd party upgrades around for older machines.

From Apple:

These Macs have the 802.11n hardware built-in:

MacBook Pro with Intel Core 2 Duo
MacBook with Intel Core 2 Duo
Mac Pro with AirPort Extreme option
iMac with Intel Core 2 Duo (except the 17-inch, 1.83GHz iMac)
