Here's your answer.
Found this in a blog!
So it's not just "ripping off the Draft before the N" that still carry Draft 2.0 branding, which is what a lot of people thought, including some "professionals" who even
wrote about it. We haven't even seen any truly
certified 802.11n equipment yet! I'll probably go back to the Atheros brand. Maybe the "Intel
Ultimate WiFi 5300".
Atheros XSPAN has served me extremely well, and still does, in my Thinkpad T60p.
Dual-band, and
Dual-concurrent using both the 2.4,
and 5.2GHz bands w/ Full MIMO Configuration is what we're going to want for insane speeds, up to 600Mbps. Then there are all the other goodies!
Oh, and here goes the new logo (alright, it's just a little modified, but still lol)...
Enjoy the read.
*******************
The Wi-Fi Alliance has begun product testing for its Wi-Fi Certified N program, updating its two-year-old 802.11n draft 2.0 program. Along with it comes a colorful new logo, taglines and labeling info.
The updated program adds testing for some popular optional features now more widely available in Wi-Fi equipment.
Those include:
* Test support for simultaneous transmission of up to three spatial streams
* Packet aggregation (A-MPDU), to make data transfers more efficient
* Space-time Block Coding (STBC), a multiple-antenna encoding technique to improve reliability in some environments
* Channel coexistence measures for “good neighbor” behavior when using 40 MHz operation in the 2.4 GHz band
Along with canning the word “draft,” devices can now be designated “Wi-Fi CERTIFIED dual-stream n” or “Wi-Fi CERTIFIED multi-stream n” to indicate that they have passed tests for specific performance-enhancing features.
Here’s who gets the shiny new accreditation first:
* Atheros XSPAN Dual-band 2.4/5GHz PCIe MiniCard for Computing Designs, Full MIMO Configuration
* Atheros XSPAN Dual-band, Dual-concurrent 2.4/5GHz, Gigabit Reference Platform for AP/Routers, Full MIMO configuration
* Broadcom Intensifi Dual-Band 802.11n Client Reference Design
* Broadcom Intensifi XLR Dual-Band 802.11n Router Reference Design
* Intel Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300
* Marvell SmartTM Wi-Fi 802.11n 3×3 450 Mbps Dual-Band Access Point
* Ralink 3×3 AP
