IIRC, the "S" was for some sort of "enhanced throughput" (?).
But, I don't think this was an "n" enhancement.  Rather,
just a regular "g" protocol but maybe some on-the-fly
compression?

I.e., is the only *real* difference between a 54G and 54GS
just the firmware?  If so, it should be possible to reflash
a G to this GS capability (though I would imagine the
images are watermarked so the *stock* firmware upgrade
mechanism might balk at the GS's image -- i.e. a completely
arbitrary? restriction requiring a JTAG work-around...)
