environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, buildings materials
and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate.
Environmental factors will adversely affect wireless signal range. Wireless
range and speed rates are D-Link RELATIVE performance measurements based on the
wireless range and speed rates of a standard Wireless G product from D-Link.
Maximum throughput based on D-Link draft 802.11n devices.
