Does the new Airport Extreme support jumbo frames?

Strange that Apple wouldn't say definitively - any owners have any hard evidence that it does or does not??

It is strange they don't mention that. This thread claims that apple confirmed jumbo frames and links to this thread which has a bit more info.

This EETimes PDF says, offhandedly, that 802.11n includes jumbo frame support, so Apple's claim to be able to do it over wireless is probably correct.

If the client card supports it, I'd say there's a good chance it would work.
