allow the use of wireless a/n dual band client devices to connect and access the TEW-692GR450Mbps
Concurrent Wireless N Gigabit Router up to 450Mbps*. Dual band wireless client devices that support
both wireless a/n can connect and access the TEW-692GR450Mbps Concurrent Wireless N Gigabit
Router up to 450Mbps. Wireless a client devices can connect and access the TEW-692GR450Mbps
