Fortunately this attack is for 802.11b, which is becoming outdated (it is slower than many DSL/Cable Internet connections). I'd like to know if a similar attack is possible on the newer versions of the protocol.

Travis is investigating physical layer attacks on most popular protocols, including Ethernet. He talked about it at RECon.

Many boxes run in dual b/g mode still though, so are still vulnerable.
