No it doesn't, pre-n and 802.11g have much greater range and speed.

@BigBDrugStores: Do you have a pre-n network card, or are you just using a pre-n router?

BigBDrugStores · 11-18-2006, 03:09 PM

im using both.

Well what I found online says B gets about 50 meters max range, G gets about 30 meters, and Pre-N gets 50 meters. But I can't really argue this point as I've not used Pre-N

802.11a has a range of ~50 Meters
802.11b has a range of ~100 Meters
802.11g has a range of ~100 Meters
802.11n (pre-n) has a range of ~250 Meters.
