802.11n Linksys USB router

Linksys has announced that their WUSB300N USB wireless adapter based on the 802.11n draft specification is now available. USB is one of the easiest ways to add wireless connectivity to a standalone desktop, or to upgrade your speeds.

The WUSB300N 802.11n USB wireless adapter sits on your desk, catching the super fast “n” rays with its a giant blue paddle. The 802.11n standard draft delivers about eight times the throughput of current consumer-standard 802.11g networks and quadruple the range. Thankfully the sub-$100 device is backwards-compatible with the older standards.

Of course one thing to bear in mind is that this specification isn’t yet fully agreed, so you take a small risk that it could change sometime next year and any future 802.11n gear you buy could be incompatible, but by now I expect things won’t change too much or firmware upgrades will get the hardware up to speed.
