A wireless local area network (WLAN) is exactly like a regular local area network (LAN), except that each computer in the WLAN uses a wireless device to connect to the network. Computers in a WLAN share the same frequency channel and SSID, which is an identification name shared by the wireless devices belonging to the same wireless network. | Linksys A Division of Cisco Systems Inc. Start a wireless network with up to 3X the range and 9X the speed PRODUCT DATA Internet-sharing Router and 4-port 10 100 Switch with a built-in speed and range enhanced Wireless Access Point MIMO technology uses multiple radios to create a robust signal that travels up to 3 times farther and reduces dead spots Up to 9 times faster than Wireless-G but also works great with Wireless-G and -B devices Wireless signals protected by wireless encryption and your network protected from Internet attacks by a powerful SPI firewall Wireless-N Home Router Model No WRT150N 111 111 CISCO. Wireless-N Home Router PRODUCT DATA Features Complies with IEEE draft standards Blazing fast wireless speeds for high bandwidth applications such as video streaming or file sharing Expanded wireless coverage up to 3X the range of products All LAN ports support autocrossover MDI MdI-X no need for crossover cables The Wireless-N Home Router is really three devices in one box. First there s the Wireless Access Point which lets you connect to the network without wires. There s also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10 100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. Finally the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection. The Access Point built into the Router uses the very latest wireless networking technology Wireless-N draft . By overlaying the signals of multiple radios 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 up to 3 times farther than standard Wireless-G. With Wireless-N the farther away you are the more speed advantage you get. It works .
