Mumbai, Maharashtra, April 26, 2010 /India PRwire/ -- D-Link, the end-to-end networking solutions provider for business and consumers, today announced that it is now shipping the D-Link® Wireless N Nano USB Adapter, combining the lightning fast speed and greater range of 802.11n Wi-Fi technology with a tiny form factor and ease of use.

The D-Link Wireless N Nano USB Adapter (DWA-131) provides an easy and cost-effective way to upgrade the wireless network performance of a desktop or notebook computer. The Nano Adapter connects to a Wireless 802.11n network so users can access high-speed Internet services, transfer files and stream media from virtually anywhere in their home or office.

The Nano Adapter's Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) with push-button design enables it to establish an easy, one-time, single-click secure connection with a WPS-enabled access point or wireless router, eliminating complex encryption codes. WPS automatically sets advanced security features using WPA2 encryption. As an alternative, D-Link's Quick Setup Wizard also provides an easy way to set up the USB adapter and the included Wireless Manager helps to keep track of recently accessed networks.

"This Ultra portable Nano-Sized Device is extremely sleek & has a very compact design with unmatched performance. Thus making it an ideal choice for setting up a secure, high performance wireless connection" said Mr. Jayesh Kotak, VP-Product Marketing, D-Link (India) Ltd.

The D-Link Nano Adapter uses 802.11n technology to maximize the speed and range of wireless signals to significantly outperform 802.11g devices*, while maintaining compatibility with existing 802.11b/g wireless routers and access points.

D-Link Wireless N products use smart antenna technology to transmit multiple streams of data -- bouncing wireless signals off walls and ceilings to work around obstructions and help eliminate dead spots -- allowing users to receive wireless signals in the farthest corners of their home or office.

Price and Availability:

D-Link Wireless N Nano USB Adapter (DWA-131) will be available across the country at an estimated street price of Rs.1,850/- & carries 1 year warranty

* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g and 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building 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 D-Link products.
