With this range-enhancing technology, a 2x to 3x eXtended RangeTM based client and access point can maintain a connection at as much as three times the transmission distance of traditional 802. 11b and 802. 11g products, for a coverage area that is up to nine times greater. A traditional 802. 11b and 802. 11g product transmission distance is about 300m, a 2x to 3x eXtended RangeTM based client and access point can maintain a connection transmission distance may be up to 830m. 802. 11b - The 802. 11b standard specifies a wireless networking at 11 Mbps using direct-sequence spread-spectrum (DSSS) technology and operating in the unlicensed radio spectrum at 2. 4GHz, and WEP encryption for security.
