Super Fast

Achieve two wireless networks in one!

NETGEAR's Double 108 Mbps Wireless PC Card injects dynamic force into your home or small
office notebook PC. When used with a WGU624 Double 108 Mbps Wireless Firewall Router,
you can access both a normal 108 Mbps network, as well as a private 108 Mbps network,
free from interference by other neighboring wireless traffic. The second wireless network acts
as a ‘carpool lane’, free from other traffic and thus suitable for applications such as video
streaming. In addition, new XR technology can achieve range up to 3X greater than 802.11g.
What's more, installation is simple — in fewer than five mouse clicks, Smart Wizard Install
Assistant has you up and running full speed ahead.

Energizes your network with blazing 108 Mbps performance on each of two individual streams.
When two WG511U adapters are used with a WGU624 router, the combined throughput of both
can be up to twice that of a similar two-PC setup with single 108 Mbps Wireless Router. One
stream can be used for normal internet surfing, while the ‘Double 108’ stream can be used as a
special additional network for your premium applications. XR Range technology allows range up
to 3X* greater that typical 802.11g wireless networks

Hassle Free

The Smart Wizard Install Assistant makes setup quick, simple, and painless. Fully backward
compatible and interoperable with 802.11b and 802.11g networks, a user can choose between
‘b’, ‘g’, 108 Mbps ‘g’, or ‘Double 108 Mbps’ modes.

* according to lab test data. Actual performance may vary due to operating conditions.
