04/26/2004 02:02 AMNetGear WGR614 802.11g Wireless Router is $37 after discount and $20
mail-in rebate: We don't like to highlight deals unless they're quite
remarkable. If you've been looking to upgrade to 802.11g and swear
that you'll send the rebate in, you can buy NetGear's home-oriented
gateway for $37 net. If you use Amazon.com's slow shipping in the
U.S., there's no fee for dispatching it to you. NetGear is pushing its
faster line of "108" Mbps gear, and this rebate probably reflects a
desire to move out plain (but compatible) 802.11g devices. You can
also get a bargain on a D-Link 802.11b access point, as Amazon is
selling the DI-514 Wireless 802.11b Cable/DSL Router for about $17.50
after a $30 mail-in rebate....

Netgear's got a new
"Wireless Travel Router," the WGR101, a pint-sized 802.11g device
designed to provide WiFi in hotel rooms or anywhere else you might
need it. A built in "double firewall" provides security in addition to
64 or 128-bit WEP and (when they get the drivers done, it looks like)
WPA upgradeable. No idea what sort of coverage range it will provide,
but if you need a WiFi router you can toss in a bag, the 0.7 x 2.3 x
3.4 inch WGR101 can be had for about 100 bucks.

Router
Tom's Networking Reviews NetGear MIMO
Router
04/11/2005 01:03 PM Tim Higgins of Tom's Networking offers his exhaustive look at the
NetGear RangeMax Wireless Router: This device uses Atheros's Super G
technology combined with Video54's multiple antenna approach. The
folks at Airgo say that Video54's MIMO isn't MIMO because it doesn't
support spatial multiplexing (multiple signals taking different paths
over the same frequencies). Video54 says multiple antennas are
multiple antennas; they're using a phase-array approach per packet in
which each packet can be sent through a different antenna combination.
The device has a street price of just $118, far below its "true MIMO"
competitors. Higgins thinks that the device delivers on some but not
all of its claims, and that because four different technologies are
involved (three from Atheros then Video54 on top) he has some issues
with the simplicity of it, too. He doesn't know which technologies
need to be turned on, off, or changed in order to achieve the best
results with that combination. That's a key advantage for the True
MIMO line of products using Airgo chips: it's essentially one
technology that wraps around all these ideas while delivering better
results....

11/18/2003 09:05 PMNetGear introduced an AP designed for small or medium businesses that
can deliver 108Mbps throughput: NetGear uses the Atheros chip that
Glenn and I reported on for PC World at the end of last week. Broadcom
claims the Atheros chip causes extreme performance degradation in
nearby Wi-Fi networks. I tried hard to speak to a NetGear spokesperson
for the PC World article but they weren't able to dig anyone up for
me. It's somewhat amusing that the NetGear folks sent us the press
release about a new 108Mbps product with no reference to our repeated
conversations last week regarding the PC World article....

NetGear Adds MIMO
NetGear Adds MIMO
01/05/2005 11:17 AM MIMO is cropping up all over: NetGear is the latest to announce a
MIMO (multiple-in, multiple-out) product. They're partnering with
Video54. Linksys has apparently chosen Airgo. Samsung and Athena
announced single-chip silicon yesterday. The near-term problem with
MIMO isn't with the technology itself, but rather the non-standard
higher speed modes. No one is claiming interference, but these modes
won't be certified by The Wi-Fi Alliance or any other group. That
means interoperability, even among devices made by manufacturers using
the same silicon isn't assured. The worst part, in my estimation, is
that this generation of MIMO technology isn't what the final 802.11n
specification will look like. So purchasing MIMO today except for
specific applications in which you need substantially higher
throughput and range from a single device over interoperable,
certified 802.11g means you're buying a dead-on device. 802.11n might
achieve speeds of several hundred megabytes per second, and there's is
practically a total certainty that the final 802.11n won't be just a
firmware upgrade, but rather a difference in both hardware and silicon
compared to today's MIMO devices....

Some Gear
Netgear Balks on WPA Certification for
Some Gear
03/08/2004 11:15 PMJust after the Wi-Fi Alliance touted how many companies have received
certification for the WPA security specification, some vendors are
suggesting they may not seek certification for some products: Going
forward, the Wi-Fi Alliance requires WPA for any product to be
certified. Netgear said that while it plans to certify ts products
that target business users, the company is not sure if it will submit
its consumer devices for certification because consumers are happy
with the more basic security mechanisms. This story points to Belkin
and SMC as other vendors that haven't certified their gear. But Belkin
says that its products support WPA but just haven't been certified
yet. Netgear is the only company this story cites as balking on
certifying some of its gear to meet WPA requirements. The Wi-Fi
Alliance bragged in February that 175 products had been certified for
WPA since September 2003. While it would be a concern if a bunch of
vendors were holding out on WPA, Netgear alone doesn't prove that such
a trend is happening. With all the buzz around the lack of security in
Wi-Fi, I would think that most vendors will want to offer as much
security as possible to reassure nervous potential users....

it a good companion: NetGear hops on the underexploited portable

unique feature is an external switch for changing between a single
user mode, multi-user shared mode, and configuration. It lacks WPA at
the moment, but support is promised. The price and features compare
favorably with Apple's upcoming AirPort Express, which retails for
$129 and includes USB printer sharing and streaming music, which
aren't critical features for a road warrior....
