* Maximum wireless signal rates derived from IEEE standard 802.11g and draft 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput may vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, buildings materials and construction, and network overhead can lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental factors will adversely affect wireless signal range. Wireless range and speed rates are relative to performance measurements based on the wireless range and speed rates of a standard Wireless G product from D-Link. Maximum throughput based on D-Link draft 802.11n devices.
