Chapter 1:

Product Overview

Thank you for choosing the RangePlus Wireless Notebook

Adapter. The RangePlus Wireless Notebook Adapter uses

the very latest wireless networking technology to achieve

extended range. Unlike ordinary wireless networking

technologies that are confused by signal reflections,

MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the range

and reduce “dead spots” in the wireless coverage area.

The robust signal travels farther, maintaining wireless

connections much farther than standard Wireless-G. And

with MIMO, the farther away you are, the more speed

advantage you get. It works great with standard Wireless-

G and -B equipment, but when both ends of the wireless

link use RangePlus technology, the throughput can be

increased even more by using twice as much radio band.

Once you’re connected, you can keep in touch with your

e-mail, access the Internet, and share files and other

resources such as printers and network storage with other

computers on the network, wherever you wander. At home,

you can surf the web or use instant messaging to chat

with friends while sitting out on the patio. You’ll also be

able to connect with any of the growing number of public

hotspots springing up in coffee shops, airport lounges,

hotels and convention centers. Your wireless connection

is protected by industrial-strength WPA2 encryption. The

included Setup Wizard will walk you through configuring

the adapter to your network’s settings, step by step.
