Editorial Reviews: Product Description The Wireless-N USB Network Adapter uses the very latest wireless networking technology, Wireless-N (draft 802.11n). 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 4 times 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 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 up to 12 times as fast as standard WirelessG.Once you're connected, you can keep in touch with your e-mail, access the Internet, and share files and other resources such as printers and network storage with other computers on the network, wherever you wander. At home, you can surf the web or use instant messaging to chat with friends while sitting out on the patio. You'll also be able to connect with any of the growing number of public hotspots springing up in coffee shops, airport lounges, hotels and convention centers. Your wireless connection is protected by industrial-strength 256-bit encryption. The included Setup Wizard will walk you through configuring the adapter to your network's settings, step by step.The incredible speed of Wireless-N makes it ideal for media-centric applications like streaming video, gaming, and Voice over IP telephony, and gives you plenty of headroom to run multiple media-intense data streams through the network at the same time, with no degradation in performance. Get connected to Wireless-N, Wireless-G, and Wireless-B networks with the Wireless-N USB Network Adapter from Linksys.

Customer Reviews: Buyer Beware if You Have Windows 7 January 4, 2010 D. Richardson (Dallas Texas) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful As I have progressed from b to g to n routers, the adapters have changed as well. If you have XP or Vista, this is a terrific adapter with great speed and capability over the length of a home and outside. For those operating systems, it is a terrific piece of hardware and worth the price. Very easy to install. I "assumed" it would work with Windows 7 which I recently converted to. It works with 7 but really screws up the way the computer works. It takes about 15 minutes to reboot (like with an antiviral update) and the problem is resolved immediately with removal of this device from the USB slot. The Linksys website lists NO N router adapter that is USB and compatible with windows 7. I suspect there will be such an animal but it does not exist on this day. That is a tragedy and it is inexcusable.
