Product DescriptionRangemax 11b 11g 2.4ghz wireless routerAmazon.comFrom the ManufacturerAs a 21st-century consumer, your desktop computer is an integral part of your life. But does your home computing environment work for you? Even if you already have a wireless network, you've probably found "dead spots" in your home where your Internet connection fades in and out, or drops off completely. Now, say good-bye to those dead spots -- and say hello to the freedom to work (and play) absolutely anywhere in your home!With the RangeMax Wireless Router, your whole house becomes a "hot spot." NETGEAR's exclusive RangeMax technology gives you the longest range of any wireless device on the market today - up to 10 times the wireless coverage of 802.11g. So you'll have a sizzling-fast, consistent connection in every room of your house... and beyond. Range Matters Put the NETGEAR RangeMax Wireless Router to work for you, and that's all you need - leave those range extenders, repeaters, and external antennas at the store. RangeMax adjusts to the interference and physical barriers in your home, and delivers up to 500,000 square feet of coverage - 1000% more than 802.11g. And you don't need to throw away your old wireless devices; RangeMax is 100% compatible with your existing 802.11b/g products and will boost their range and speed by up to 50%. Power Under the Hood RangeMax is an advanced Smart MIMO (Multi-In, Multi-Out) technology that uses seven internal antennas. RangeMax constantly surveys your home environment for physical barriers and interference and adjusts the wireless signal to compensate for these performance blockers. For example, if you carry your laptop from the family room to the bedroom, RangeMax automatically senses the change and selects from over 100 possible antenna configurations to deliver you the fastest, clearest connection! Everyone will enjoy consistently high-speed connections, everywhere in your house - no drop-outs, and no dead spots. Simple, Safe, Secure Think you can't set up your wireless router without an engineering degree? Think again. NETGEAR's SmartWizard makes the set-up easy and hassle-free. SmartWizard automatically detects your ISP's network settings, then walks you through each step of the installation process. It's like having your own computer technician, right by your side. NETGEAR also ensures that every computer user in your home network can work and play safely - with a double firewall, WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), and WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access, Pre-Shared Key) Security, your network will have powerful safeguards against unauthorized usage. Rangemax expands wireless coverage up to 500,000 square feet compared to 45,000 square feet for standard 802.11g.What is MIMOMIMO wireless refers to the use of multiple antennas at both ends of a radio link, and is emerging as an important technology to enhance wireless performance. MIMO has evolved (and is still evolving), since its early beginning in 1993, with contributions from hundreds of researchers around the world. Some aspects of MIMO have already entered wireless standards, and many more standards efforts are ongoing. The multiple antennas at each end of a MIMO link can be used in different modes such as transmit-receive diversity, beamforming, antenna subset selection and spatial multiplexing. Each of these modes further has several internal options. Which mode or option actually maximizes performance depends on the channel condition, SNR and QoS requirements, among other factors. For example spatial multiplexing can perform poorer than transmit-receive diversity under certain scenarios. Different aspects of MIMO will find their unique niches in the plethora of products now entering the market.
