It's my understanding that in mixed mode you will get true N speeds as long as no other (B or G) is transmitting at the same time as the N system is communicating, once one of the older standards starts transmitting the system then drops to the lowest common denominator.

I am glad you brought up the Ethernet over power lines, I have been thinking of doing this for a couple of the more used PC's in the house. Does it work as well as true cat5/6 wired systems?
