RangeMax 240 is an innovation in wireless technology, delivering wireless speeds of up to 240 Mbps - as fast as wired Ethernet. RangeMax 240 uses an advanced MIMO (Multi-In, Multi-Out) technology to transmit multiple streams of data in a single wireless channel.

That means, for the first time ever, you can enjoy wired speeds with wireless freedom. You don't need cables to conveniently stream MP3s or High Definition quality video, play online games, access networked storage, use Internet telephony, or just surf the web anywhere in your home. RangeMax 240 Wireless Adapters are optimized for use with the RangeMax 240 Wireless Router, so that everyone enjoys ultimate speed and coverage everywhere in your house - with virtually no dropouts or dead spots. With RangeMax 240, wireless is finally as fast as wired.

Using multiple streams of data that dynamically adapt to interference, RangeMax 240 Wireless technology boosts your network coverage area by up to ten times that of standard wireless routers. It also maintains connection speeds up to fourteen times faster than a legacy wireless g router at the edge of its range.

With NETGEAR's exclusive Touchless WiFi Security, you can rest assured that what happens on your network stays on your network. Touchless WiFi Security automatically detects the type of security settings of your network, whether it's a NETGEAR router or even another brand, and connects you with a simple passphrase. RangeMax 240's powerful safeguard against unauthorized network access includes WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), WPA-PSK, and WPA2-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access - Pre-Shared Key). NETGEAR's SmartWizard also makes installation simple - you'll be up and running in minutes.
