    The box says 802.11 ABG. But the wireless card says its "N". How do I get it to work in "N" mode?

    I had a TZ150N/B and it had wireless N. You have to update your drivers and install wireless switch utility or smartwi and enable it 5GHz as oppose to 2.4GHz

    I don't think you need to use 5GHz to use N. You can use 2.4GHz (and some routers only support 2.4GHz), but you won't get quite as high transfers as using the 5GHz band.
