NETGEAR WNDA3100 RANGEMAX DUAL BAND Wireless N Adapter Review

Others/Networking Gear by stefan @ 2010-07-15

The dual band WNDA3100 USB Wireless LAN adapter from NETGEAR has the ability to connect to both 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless networks. It features a multicolored LED, which lights up differently depending on its status, so we will know on what type of network we are connected, without checking up the software application.

  • For the client wireless tests I used an Asus X55SV Laptop. For testing the USB Wireless LAN adapter throughput, I have connected the server ( I7 PC ) to the router with a UTP wire and the client ( ASUS X55SV ) had installed the Wireless LAN adapter.

    The application I have used to test the speeds was Performance Test 7.0, fully compatible with Windows 7.
