The Ultra RangePlus Dual-Band Wireless-N ExpressCard is the simple way to add or upgrade wireless connectivity in your notebook computer. Just slide it into your computer's ExpressCard slot and enjoy incredible high-speed wireless network access while retaining true mobility. The Dual-Band Wireless-N ExpressCard uses the very latest wireless networking technology- Wireless-N (draft 802.11n). By overlaying the signals of multiple radios for each band- Wireless-N's ""Multiple In- Multiple Out"" (MIMO) technology multiplies the effective data rate. Unlike ordinary wireless networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections- MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the range and reduce ""dead spots"" in the wireless coverage area. The robust signal travels farther- maintaining wireless connections much farther than standard Wireless-G. With Wireless-N- the farther away you are- the more speed advantage you get. It works great with standard Wireless-G- -A- and -B equipment- but when both ends of the wireless link are Wireless-N- the throughput can be increased even more by using twice as much radio band- yielding speeds far faster than standard Wireless-G. Dual-band wireless networks operate in both the 2.4 and 5 gigahertz radio bands at the same time- effectively doubling the available wireless bandwidth. For instance- you could set up your network to handle video streaming on one radio band- and use the other band for simultaneous data transfers- avoiding any interference or collisions that would degrade the video performance. The Dual-Band Wireless-N ExpressCard allows you to connect using whichever band works the best for your situation. "

Linksys WEC600N Wireless-N ExpressCard Adapter Review

Poison Pill

★☆☆☆☆
1.0

"Pros

Unit installed as a Plug & Play.



Cons

Units speed was only 150 Mbps. Stayed in my laptop for about 2 days then my laptop turned off

due to a thermal shutdown. It destroyed my video

ram causing me to have it repaired. Tried it in another machine and it did the same thing.

"I have this card in a Gateway laptop which had wireless G built in, but I couldn't get a good signal from the wireless G due to the distance from the router. This new wireless N card works outstanding in both 2.4 and 5 bands. Installation was easy and it works great. "
