I got the RangeMax Next Gigabit edition and it worked great. I was able to have my home network operate at over 100 MBps speeds, was able to play wireless games, could download video and large files from my desktop to laptop.. it was facinating to see how Wireless technology has improved.<br><br>I would advice to get the adapter along with it, though it supports and enhances your experience with your built in g. Its a good time to get it now... all PC manufacturers are coming up with Wireless-N with Vista just round the corner.<br><br>Making skype calls with my laptop was easy. No dropped calls from any location in my house. Try to beat that with Wireless G!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mark Smith]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2006 2:18AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Netgear intros RangeMax Next &quot;draft spec&quot; 802.11n products]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/netgear-releases-rangemax-next-draft-spec-802-11n-products/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/04/05/netgear-releases-rangemax-next-draft-spec-802-11n-products/</guid><description><![CDATA[This range of routers is compatible with the very posatively received draft 2.0 spec and is therefor more likey to work with future wireless-n devices than any others currently on the market.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ali]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 5th 2007 8:52AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
