Not entirely true. But I think you also know that.. It's not so much the more 1Mbit clients you have but rather how much data these 1Mbit clients are using and how frequently they are transmitting data. If they send a constant slow 28k stream of data (say a streaming media server) then they will basically LOCK that AP in 1Mbit mode or say they run kazaa and downloa da lot of data it don't have to be that they download it very fast just that they have a constant stream or close to constant stream of data. As long as this 1Mbit client is speaking your entire cell is running at 1Mbit speed. However if the 1Mbit client just check their mail from time to time and load an occasional webpage then the AP will just speak in 1Mbit mode when this client have any traffic. So answer is rather the more frequent the 1Mbit clients transmit data the slower you cell will be (no matter if there is only 1Mbit client or 10 but chances are that if you have 10 they will keep the AP running at 1Mbit speeds for longer periods of time then if you only have 1 client at 1Mbit speeds)
