Introduction

RangeMax NEXT with Steady-Stream technology complies with draft 802.11n‡ and delivers up to 270Mbps†. This next generation draft standard and Steady-Stream technology enable stable connections at greater range for all your applications, all over the home, all at once†. You can simultaneously share files, download MP3s, make Internet phone calls, play network games, and stream high-definition videos. RangeMax NEXT products interoperate at up to 300 Mbps† speeds with other wireless products powered by Top Dog technology, plus they are compatible with all legacy b and g wireless products. Advanced design and draft 11n-True-Test high-performance testing and tuning ensure maximum draft-11n performance every time. Setup is easy thanks to NETGEAR’s Smart Wizard and 24/7 technical support*. Touchless WiFi Security simplifies establishing the highest level of wireless network security with WEP, WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK.

First, there was RangeMax, which improved on the wireless g standard’s limitations in speed and coverage. Now, NETGEAR offers RangeMax NEXT, which gives consumers a new level of capabilities and transfer speeds, including the ability to play online games, use VoIP, download large files, and stream HD video—all simultaneously and with consistent speeds.

†Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE standard 802.11 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. NETGEAR makes no express or implied representations or warranties about this product‘s compatibility with any future standards.

‡“Draft-n Compliant” refers to compliance with IEEE 802.11n draft specification version 1.0 only.
