hmm. i don;t think this is grammatically incorrect at all. it might
sound strange to some ears, i guess. but wrong? why is it wrong?

Cause the 802.11a speeds don't have speeds? Admittedly I'm not a native speaker, but I'd agree with the OP.

i guess we can reword it if folks think it sounds odd (or wrong ;) but
if i had to do that, i'd say it'd sound better as "the same as those for
802.11a".

This sounds even better. My ok on that one if you feel you need it. :)

your mail suggests there's another man fix around. have i missed
