 Netgear preaches dual-band, all access home and goes cool. The latest Draft N RangeMax WNDR3300 router will feature dual-band access concurrently on 2.4/5GHz, sporting eight internal antennas and a new easy access security protocol called Wi-Fi Protected Setup. Also comes in shiny black finish too.

 The HD/Gaming 5 GHz Wireless-N Networking Kit (WNHDEB111) can be used to connect to any existing router or gateway to provide a lag-free gaming environment or HD streaming via a 5GHz Draft N channel. The WNHDEB111 has six internal antennas and can use the new Push N Connect feature to connect to routers having the Wi-Fi Protected Setup feature.

 Still on an 802.11g network? The new RangeMax wireless signal extender (WPN824EXT) offers up seven internal antennas to boost your existing network range and strength.

 Netgear's new ReadyNAS Duo line come in 500GB, 700GB and 1TB sizes. These boxes offer Gigabit LAN and independent Bittorrent downloading capabilities. It can also automatically copy out photos from digital cameras that are connected to its USB port. You can even protect your data through their own X-RAID technology.

 Netgear's recently launched Powerline HD Plus Ethernet Adapter is capable of 200Mbps data transfers through power outlets and is suited for high bandwidth applications such as IPTV, video streaming and more. No wonder it has the HD moniker to distinguish it from its older series.
