What is RangeMax?
NETGEAR’s RangeMax extends your wireless network coverage up to 10 times that of standard 802.11g due to an advanced Smart MIMO (Multi-In, Multi-Out) technology that incorporates seven intelligent internal antennas in a wireless router. The antennas continuously scan your home or office, automatically sensing obstacles and electronic interference, then dynamically adjust the wireless signal to compensate and maintain a clear connection.

RangeMax Wireless PC Card (WPN511), PCI Adapter (WPN311) and USB 2.0 Adapter (WPN111) are optimized for use with RangeMax Wireless Router (WPN824) so everyone enjoys high-speed connections in your home or office---with virtually no dropouts or dead spots.
