Amazon.com Product Description
 | The NETGEAR WPN511 RangeMax Wireless PC Card offers: - Advanced MIMO technology that offers greater speed and range compared to standard 802.11g
- Enhanced security with support for WPA 128-bit WEP encryption
- Backwards compatibility with 802.11b networks
|  | | The NETGEAR WPN511 RangeMax Wireless PC Card makes it simple for you to provide wireless internet access to your notebook computer, letting you surf the web, check email, and chat online without the need for cables. It is up to ten times faster and has up to ten times more coverage than Wireless-G for a speedy network that won't get bogged down when you you stream music and videos or make internet phone calls. 
The WPN511 has ten times the range of standard 802.11g. View larger. | Easy Setup
The WPN511 is a PC Card and requires a Pentium class PC with an available 32-bit CardBus slot for installation. It supports Windows Vista and is also compatible with Windows XP, 2000, 98SE, and Me. Setup is as simple as inserting the card into the slot and installing the included software. A built-in antenna helps you receive a strong signal for the fastest possible speeds. Fast and Secure
The NETGEAR WPN511 supports the 802.11g protocol standard but is able to provide better performance thanks to Smart MIMO technology that incorporates intelligent internal antennas into the router. The router automatically senses interference from devices such as microwaves and cordless phones, and adjusts accordingly. The upshot is speeds up to 108 Mbps with a longer range and a lack of "dead zones" in your home. The adapter is also backwards compatible with 802.11b networks so you don't have to worry about not getting a connection at specific hotspots; the WPN511 will automatically detect the network and allow you to connect to it at the highest speed possible. The PC card supports 40/64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption as well as WPA-PSK for security so you don't have to worry about anyone eavesdropping on your emails or stealing your passwords. The included software makes managing different WEP passwords a breeze as you can set up different profiles for each location you frequent, saving yourself the trouble of having to type in encryption keys each time you connect to a hotspot you've already used. The NETGEAR WPN511 Wireless-G PC Card is backed by a 1-year warranty. What's in the Box

 Really fast and easy to use October 29, 2008
I just purchased a NETGEAR WPN511 RangeMax Wireless PC Card to replace my Linksys Wireless G card. The setup was easy and offers a great on-screen wizard that runs when the card is in use. The speed and coverage are as advertised - faster speed and broader coverage for my home network. I am happily enjoying downloading and streaming video while sitting my backyard, far away from the router. I highly recommend this card to all laptop users.

great product July 30, 2007
I did quite extensive research before decided to purchase this item. Most of my friends/reviews suggested buying from Netgear. I followed the product guide to do the installation. It went very smooth and took less than 10 minutes. It has been up running for almost two months now, very sound product!
WPN511 card July 4, 2007
Works very well with the Rangemax router. My DLink card kept dropping signal even at close range. This one stays on all the time!
