Eliminate Cold Spots with HyperG™ Technology
2Wire HyperG high-powered wireless technology virtually eliminates wireless 'coldspots' in the home.
HomePortal residential gateways provide up to seven times the true power of traditional access points and increase wireless bandwidth by using high power 400mW transmitters. (Most wireless access points provide less than 100mW.)
Best of all, HyperG technology uses a standards-based, interoperable design. That means even the performance of subscribers' existing wireless 802.11b and 802.11g adapters will improve with a HyperG-enabled HomePortal residential gateway.
The 2Wire unique triple wireless antenna design extends wireless reach and boosts performance compared to typical 802.11 wireless designs, which have only two antennas. 2Wire gateways have a third antenna used only for transmitting packets. The extra antenna enables 2Wire wireless gateways to avoid the power loss associated with switching antenna modes back and forth from transmit to receive.
Antenna placement is optimized with a dedicated set of receive-only antennas, resulting in greater access point sensitivity and increased wireless throughput and range. Better range throughout the home means better delivery of enhanced services, like VoIP and VOD.
