*Distance and connection speeds will vary depending on your networking environment.
**This Router is compatible with products based on the same version of the draft 802.11n
specifications and may require a software upgrade for best results.
What’s the difference between 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11a, and draft
802.11n?
Currently there are four levels of wireless networking standards, which
transmit data at very different maximum speeds. Each is based on
the designation for certifying network standards. The most common
wireless networking standard, 802.11b, transmits information at 11Mbps;
802.11a and 802.11g work at 54Mbps; and draft 802.11n works at
300Mbps. See the following chart for more detailed information.
