Introduction 1-1
v1.0, September 2008
Chapter 1
Introduction
This chapter describes some of the key features of the NETGEAR Wireless-N Access Point
WN802T v2. It also includes the minimum prerequisites for installation (“System Requirements”
on page 1-3.), package contents (“What is in the Box” on page 1-3), and a description of the front
and back panels of the WN802T v2 (“Front Panel of the NETGEAR Wireless-N Access Point” on
page 1-3).
About the NETGEAR Wireless-N Access Point WN802T v2
The NETGEAR Wireless-N Access Point WN802T v2 is the basic building block of a wireless
LAN infrastructure. It provides connectivity between Ethernet wired networks and radio-equipped
wireless notebook systems, desktop systems, print servers, and other devices.
The WN802T v2 provides wireless connectivity to multiple wireless network devices within a
fixed range or area of coverage—interacting with a wireless network interface card (NIC) via an
antenna. Typically, an individual in-building access point provides a maximum connectivity area
of about 600 feet radius. Consequently, the NETGEAR Wireless-N Access Point can support a
small group of users in a range of several hundred feet. Most access points can handle up to 32
users simultaneously.
The NETGEAR Wireless-N Access Point WN802T v2 acts as a bridge between the wired LAN
and wireless clients. Connecting multiple WN802T v2s via a wired Ethernet backbone can further
lengthen the wireless network coverage. As a mobile computing device moves out of the range of
one access point, it moves into the range of another. As a result, wireless clients can freely roam
from one Access Point to another and still maintain seamless connection to the network.
The auto-rate capability of the NETGEAR Wireless-N Access Point WN802T v2 allows packet
transmission at up to 300 Mbps, or at reduced speeds to compensate for distance or
electromagnetic interference.
