Belkin introduces new ultimate performance of wireless dual band router based on N900 DB technology. No wonder, since each of wireless networking manufacturers offer the fastest wireless router based on N900 wireless technology. This is the ultimate speed of the fastest wireless technology today with total bandwidth up to 900Mbps ideal conditions.
Speed up to 450Mbps each band is fantastic speed if this is a real world speed of a wireless connectivity, mostly use what we call three spatial data streams where each data stream delivers up to 150Mbps. You will get maximum performance in speed if both ends of communication devices use the same fast lane. With 450Mbps wireless connection your router can deliver (ideally) in one end and high speed wireless clients in the other ends – they will perform optimally. Intel Centrino 6300 is one of Intel mini PCI-e adapters with 450Mbps based on 802.11a/b/g/n standards. Upgrading your laptops with this not-easy to install mini-PCI adapter would be great. Yes, it is not possible for ordinary user to install this mini PCI adapter because you have to open the laptop case and locate the mini PCI slot which is usually under the laptop keyboard. However, many high speed wireless USB adapters are available such as TEW-684UB 450 Mbps dual band wireless n USB adapter.
What’s new with wireless Belkin N900 DB?
If you examine with the previous Belkin N750 DB, this one is nearly the same except that the speed technology. Both Belkin N900 and Belkin N750 have the same:
- Multibeam high-power antenna technology
- Gigabit Ethernet ports for WAN (1x) and LAN (4x) interfaces
- Two USB 2.0 ports to help you share both external disk storage and printer
What about Linksys E4200v2 N900 technology? This is the new version of Linksys E4200 with speed enhancement to support 450Mbps each band.
E4200v2 includes only one USB 2.0 port and the new enhancement is that Linksys add the share print capability with this USB port. Moreover, the router includes built-in UPnP and DLNA media server that will connect seamlessly to any other home theater DLNA compliant devices such as Blu-ray and XBOX.
The following table shows you Belkin N900 DB Vs Linksys E4200V2 N900
| Belkin N900 | Linksys E4200V2 | |
|---|---|---|
| Wireless technology | N900 with multi-beam technology | Wireless N900 with Full 3×3 MIMO antenna array |
| Ethernet Ports | Gigabit | Gigabit |
| USB ports | 2x USB 2.0 ports for storage and printer at the same time | 1xUSB for storage or printer with built-in DLNA media server |
| Security | WPA/WPA2; guest network | WPA/WPA2; guest network |
Both wireless routers are designed for large home network with backyard, and you don’t need to add a wireless range extender anymore. Normally with standard wireless router you can extend the range by adding an extender such as Netgear WN3000Rp range extender.
