USB Wi‑Fi Adapter LANBERG NC-0300-WIE, USB 2.0, Dual External Antennas 5 dBi, WLAN 300 Mbps, Ethernet/WLAN, Black

Lanberg N300 USB 2.0 wireless network interface card (NIC) provides a stable Wi‑Fi connection for devices operating in the 802.11 b/g/n family. The adapter includes a detachable external antenna that extends transmission range compared with nano/mini variants and supports connection to routers, access points and repeaters. Compact dimensions and a removable antenna make the NIC suitable for use with mobile devices as well as in more stationary network setups.

Advantages

The adapter supports multi‑antenna (MIMO) transmission for improved throughput, offers up to 300 Mb/s link speed, and supports common Wi‑Fi encryption standards (WEP, WPA, WPA2). A detachable external antenna allows replacement with a higher‑gain model to increase coverage and stability. Drivers are supplied on CD for straightforward installation.

Suitable for

• Connecting laptops and desktop computers to 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi networks
• Extending reception range where onboard Wi‑Fi is weak
• Basic online tasks: web browsing, e‑mail, file sharing and standard audio/video streaming
• Use with routers, access points and repeaters operating in 802.11 b/g/n

How to use

Insert the LANBERG NIC into a free USB Type‑A port of the host device. Install drivers supplied on the CD or download the appropriate driver version from the manufacturer if needed; select the driver matching your operating system and driver version (WEB V0.2 / V0.3 / V0.4 where applicable). After driver installation, use the system network manager to scan for 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi networks, select the desired SSID and enter the network password to connect.

Recommendations

Observe local radio frequency regulations when using the device, since available channels and legal transmission parameters depend on country law.* For best results place the detachable external antenna vertically and, if necessary, replace it with a higher‑gain antenna compatible with the connector to improve range and stability. Driver support depends on the microchip manufacturer and may change; check the vendor’s website for the latest driver updates.**
