As some of you know I will be going to Japan for a while. My wife's family in Okinawa doesn't have a wireless router so I was thinking of bringing my Wireless-G 3com router with me so that when I got there I could plug it up and use my laptop upstairs rather then go down 2 flights of stairs just to get online.

Someone told me that they thought that wireless routers were illegal in Japan and they had to be specially bought 'japanese' ones due to radio frequency differences.

Is this true???
