FastLane3™ Technology
The NETGEAR patented FastLane3 Technology is composed of Tri-band WiFi, which establishes a dedicated WiFi link between the extender and the router. Combined with an optimized antenna design, this technology provides more speed to more devices. These elements work together to create a powerful solution for extending WiFi throughout your home.
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| FASTLANE | Maximizes performance by limiting devices to one band. Only one band is available for devices to use, while the other is dedicated to the router connection. FastLane needs to be enabled in the GUI. Use case: More bandwidth for more devices. |
| FASTLANE3 Technology | Maximizes performance using a dedicated third band for connecting to the router. Devices can utilize both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands of the extender for connection. Using a dedicated band results in minimal performance impact when new clients join the network. FastLane3 Technology is automatically enabled. Use case: Enhances your gaming and streaming experience. |
Visual Description: A diagram illustrates the concept of extending WiFi coverage.
