N150 Wireless Router User Manual
Note: The maximum wireless signal rate is derived from the IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate.
The Mode options are:
-Up to 54 Mbps - Legacy Mode with maximum speed of up to 54 Mbps for b/g networks.
-Up to 72 Mbps - Neighbor Friendly Mode - Will not interfere with neighboring wireless networks.
-Up to 150 Mbps - Performance Mode - Maximum Nx speeds up to 150 Mbps. Using channel expansion to achieve the 150 Mbps data rate, the WNR1000v3h2 will use the channel you selected as the primary channel and expand to the secondary channel (primary channel +4 or
