Wireless LAN
The transmission speed over the wireless LAN and the distance over
which wireless LAN can reach may vary depending on surrounding
electromagnetic environment, obstacles, access point design and
configuration, and client design and software/hardware configurations.
The Transmit Rate (at X Mbit/s) is the theoretical maximum speed
under the IEEE802.11 (a/b/g/n) standards. The actual transmission
speed will be lower than the theoretical maximum speed.
