Wireless 802.11 G is OUT.. WELCOME Wireless N!!

Anyone here replace their Wireless G or B with the new Wireless N???

It really kicks ass.. Blows Wireless G away.. The range is mindblowing compared to Wireless G and the SPEED is noticably faster..



When I bought my new laptop 2 months ago, I was sure to have the Wireless G card pre-installed.. Most laptops do now days. Before youd have to have a ugly network card hanging out the side to go wireless.. Wireless G already installed in the new laptops is a great feature.. It was faster and better than wireless B and wireless A and was supposed to be the future..

Well shit... So much for the future of wireless G. Now there is wireless N. And the jump in performance is HUGE.. G will be and has to be replced with N.. ITs THAT MUCH BETTER!

So I yet again have a wireless network card hanging out the side of my PC..

But holy fuck.. With wireless G, in some areas of my home the connection would get weak.. Slow... Id always have connection, but things would not always be full strength..

With this new Wireless N card, not only is the connection strong, but the range is awsome.. I can get in my car and drive all the way down the street and still have a connection.. A STRONG connection.

I suggest anyone who has range problems with wireless G networking who live in a large home, or anyone who wants to increase the range so you can have a stronger and faster connection outside the home get one of these things.. Its great.

FYI.. You have to buy both the Router and the network card for it to work..

Belikin is the only one to make it, and it just came out about 3 weeks ago.
