Except that this article seems to completely skip 802.11n, and while it
mentions 802.11a in the Performance and Speed section, states in a more
prominent section "Wi-Fi uses spectrum near 2.4 GHz, which is
standardized and unlicensed by international agreement, although the
exact frequency allocations vary slightly in different parts of the
world, as does maximum permitted power." It otherwise ignores te 5GHz
band.

Time for an update...

"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of
arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to
skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, chip shot in the other, body thoroughly
used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

It's orphaned and dead.

The new wiki is http://wireless.navas.us

Except that the corresponding text on the new page linked there ("Main
article", http://wireless.navas.us/wiki/Wi-Fi) appears to be
identical. Searching for "11n" returns no hits, but plenty with "11g",
"11b", and "11a".

Also, all the equipment listed appears to be 802.11b, g, and/or a only.
