IEEE 802.11g is backwards compatible with which other 802.11 standard(s)?
A
802.11n
B
802.11a
C
802.11b
D
802.11ac
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -802.11g hardware is fully backward compatible with 802.11b hardware. Details of making b and g work well together occupied much of the lingering technical process.

Detailed explanation-2: -It has been widely reported that 802.11n, the wireless LAN IEEE draft standard that uses multiple input/multiple output technology to boost Wi-Fi speeds to over 100Mbps, is “backward compatible” with today’s 802.11a, 11b, and 11g networks.

Detailed explanation-3: -A future standard, 802.11g, may offer 802.11a speeds and backward compatibility to 802.11b. The 802.11a standard offers more nonoverlapping channels per AP that clients can use: eight, vs. three for 802.11b.
