NETGEAR® introduces the new wireless network devices based on the upcoming IEEE 802.11ac WiFi standard. This 5th generation WiFi standard delivers higher Gigabit speeds – up to 3 times faster…
The new era of fast wireless connectivity has arrived.
The gigabit speed is not just for handling fast internet.. In a local
network, one may want to transfer huge files between PCs, for example.
Assuming those PCs also have Wireless ac, those files would transfer at
Gigabit speeds (also, assuming they are linked at the full Gigabit speed..
this is wireless we are talking about and substantial interference could
slow that gigabit speed down)
RRP of $69 for the USB adaptor bit . ly / Ju3d5U No internal wireless cards
atm though
moy bien!
Nextgeneration A6200 WiFi USB Adapter – 802.11ac 300/867 Mbps? USB 2.0? Ok.
Misleading advert. I assumed that the speed here would be 1.8Gb/s because
802.11n dictates that the maximum speed available is 600Mb/s, where the
Cisco E4200 V2 does a theoretical maximum of 900Mb/s. So, it’s not three
times faster than the fastest device (more like 1.5 times) and it’s not
three times faster than what the specs say (more like 2.25 times) I’m
waiting for every thing to be finalised, where we at least get a
theoretical max of 3.47Gb/s
Well yeah. Currently Trendnet are meant to be selling wireless cards
(externals) for a whopping $200! I’d only buy it if it went down to $50 or
less
We are waiting for you google fiber!
You only get 600 Mbit/s from 802.11n if you have a 4×4 MIMO configuration,
and likewise you will only get 6.93 Gbit/s from 802.11ac with an 8×8 MIMO
configuration. Real world numbers are always much lower, but you can’t
compare the high end of one spec to the low end of another.
You could buy a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro.
$200 to be precise,though interestingly netgear haven’t made an adapter,
but another company have. It does see rather odd
Well yeah, but the router should drop down to wireless N/wireless G,
depending on your WiFi card so kinda pointless if you don’t have any
wireless AC devices tbf
Of course. That’s why I say theoretical maximum. The reason being it’s
never acheived. However the 802.11n specs say that the max speed is 600Mb/s
and it’s Netgear who made the claim that the product is “up to 3 times
faster than today’s fastest 802.11n products” and there are many products
that have a spec of 600Mb/s and afaik the E4200 V2 is the only 900Mb/s one,
though that’s one that exceeds 802.11n specs
I’m wondering when it will official come out.
Having Netgear-ac with Comcast service is like having a Porsche but you
have to leave it in your garage all the time.
From how long 802.11n took to finalize, I’m guessing we’ll be working with
11ac “Draft” components for the next 20 years?
MUST<3
Actually, the adaptor doesn’t cost that much now that Netgear have finally
decided to release one. It’s got an RRP of $69 bit . ly / Ju3d5U
I’m assuming that 802.11ae will be built in to the ac products – they seem
be in the same development range bit . ly / 13lfGo (Remove spaces) 802.11ae
just allows for QOS, whereas 802.11ac allows large speed differences.
802.11ad is the one to watch bit . ly / jxkAp1 (Remove spaces) Though I
can’t see 802.11ad being used as widely due to the air/walls issue
This is the best comment and I concur!!
Very few people actually have enough DSL/Internet speed to utilize it
properly!
i have just installed an intel 7260 ac wireless adapter in my sattelite
p850 broadband speed lightning fast and solid connection.

1.35 GIGABITS A SE…!!
