WHY WIRELESS N IS BETTER This Wireless N Adapter uses draft 802.11n technology to maximize the speed and range of your wireless signal to significantly outperform 802.11g MIMO devices**. The Wireless N Adapter makes use of your home's environment by bouncing multiple wireless signals off of walls and ceilings to work around obstructions and help eliminate dead spots. * Using a USB 1.1 port will affect device performance. ** Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g and draft 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental factors will adversely affect wireless signal range. Wireless range and speed rates are D-Link RELATIVE performance measurements based on the wireless range and speed rates of a standard 802.11g MIMO product from D-Link.
