Amazon.com Product Description
 | The NETGEAR HD/Gaming 5 GHz Wireless-N Networking Kit WNHDEB111 offers: - Use of the 5 GHz frequency for less interference.
- Works with: XBox, Playstation, Wii, TiVo HD, Slingbox, digital set-top boxes, NETGEAR's Digital Entertainer HD, Apple TV, network attached storage, and more!
- Automatic Quality of Service (QoS) that prioritizes voice, video, and gaming traffic.
|  | | The NETGEAR HD/Gaming 5 GHz Wireless-N Networking Kit WNHDEB111 enables super-fast file transfers at the highest possible Wireless-N speeds, making it an ideal solution for network gaming and streaming HD videos. By utilizing patented metamaterial antenna technology, the WNHDEB111 offers a speed and range far surpassing the old Wireless-G standard. 
By operating on the less crowded 5 GHz frequency, wireless connections are stronger and faster. View larger. | Easy Setup
The WNHDEB111 kit includes two access point/bridges, preconfigured to securely connect to each other. Setting it up is as easy as connecting one access point to your router/gateway, and connecting the other to your networkable device, such as your XBox, Playstation, Wii, TiVo HD, Slingbox, digital set-top boxes, NETGEAR's Digital Entertainer HD, Apple TV, network attached storage, and more. Setup is easily and securely done with a simple "Push 'N Connect" feature using Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), which eliminates the need to remember or input security password keys. It automatically configures to access point or bridge mode depending on the type of Ethernet enabled device it connects to. To add another HD Bridge to your HD network, the NETGEAR 5 GHz Wireless-N HD Access Point/Bridge is available. Minimal Interference = Outstanding Performance
Most wireless devices today, such as Wi-Fi devices, cordless phones, Bluetooth devices, microwaves, and baby monitors, operate on the 2.4 GHz frequency, thus creating a lot of traffic and interference. The WNHDEB111, however, operates on the 5 GHz band which has up to 23 free channels and avoids the interference that most other devices must contend with. The WNHDEB111 complies with the latest Wireless-N draft specification for the fastest possible Wireless-N speeds. Automatic Quality of Service (QoS) ensures lag-free gaming and jitter-free HD streaming. It supports wireless "ad-hoc" mode for wireless LAN peer-to-peer gaming and supports multicast point-to-multi-point HD video streaming. The WNHDEB111 supports WiFi Protected Access (WPA2-PSK, WPA-PSK), and 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption and is backed by a 1-year warranty. What's in the Box
Two 5 GHz Wireless-N HD Access Point/Bridges, two stands, two Ethernet cables, setup CD, two power adapters, and warranty/support information card.
The WNHDEB111 avoids interference from 2.4 GHz wireless devices. |

 FAST... but know what you're buying November 27, 2008
Although this is marketed as an "HD/Gaming" wireless kit, it's important to know what this really is and how to use it.
MOST IMPORTANT: This kit isn't a router -- you cannot create a Wireless N network with it alone. It is designed to add to your existing network... often a wireless 2.4 GHz network (commonly 802.11 b/g). This will provide high-speed "802.11n" at 5 GHz so it doesn't interfere with a current b/g network. Any wireless b/g devices (Xbox wireless adapter, PS3 internal wireless, b/g laptops, b/g network cards, etc.) currently used on the network will be unaffected by this addition.
HOW THIS WORKS: The kit features two identical units -- one unit will plug into your existing network's router via Ethernet as an "access point", and the other unit will plug into the Ethernet device(s) (Xbox, PS3, computer, etc.) as a "bridge". Once the two units sync, it will behave as if the device(s) plugged into the bridge is hardwired to the network router.
Each unit has two Ethernet ports... if you want to plug a 3rd (or more) devices in to the "bridge", you will need to add a switch like NETGEAR FS105 ProSafe 5-Port 10/100 Desktop Switch.
TECH NOTE: The Ethernet ports on these devices are NOT Gigabit ports, so even though the wireless N signal can achieve 300 Mbit/s, the fastest speed you will achieve on these devices is 100 Mbit/s. However, this speed is more than enough for multiple HD streams and high-speed gaming.
BENEFITS: As mentioned, your current B/G network is unchanged, so any wireless activity using that will remain the same. This kit is not designed to replace that network... just add to it. Any device(s) plugged into this Netgear kit will have greater wireless range and a MUCH faster connection than using the older B/G network.
Works great October 17, 2008
I had a little more trouble getting this to work than I thought I would based on the description on the box, but once I got it up and running it worked great. I'm not using all the function, but still I'm quite satisfied.
 Net Gear September 22, 2008
I really cannot rate the product as I cannot get logged into the product. I attempted to register the Netgear WNHDE111 and they never send me a reply or confirmation that I have registered. When I try to utilize the device it asks for a password. I tried several renditions but have not been able to get it to work. I called customer service and informed them that I had attempted to login for product registration. They were able to see that but I still have not received a confirmation and even after they stated they would send me another confirmation reply with my password. I still hav not received that reply.
This truly may be agreat product but the customer service that Netgear gives is deplorable. Fortunately for me, I have 2wire or I still would not be able to gain access to the internet.
I cannot login to the web site to get the proper assistance and when I did talk with one of their representatives they told me the the problem was with 2wire as they don't need a password (the instructions say 'password' is the password but I stgill cannot gain access). That is not true. So presently I have paid for a product I cannot use!!!!
I would strongly state that no one should pourchase products from Netgear. They have absolutely the worse customer service. What good is spending your money on something and you cannot use it.
love it September 21, 2008
My husband used this to network our computer together. It works great. Very easy to set up!
Fastest speed I've experienced, but slightly difficult setup process September 2, 2008

This is the third (and final!) in a series of 802.11n routers I tried over the last few weeks. I upgraded to 'n' since our G router + Linksys Range Expander couldn't effectively reach across our courtyard and into my wife's office. We needed high throughput and reliability in an environment that was tough on the G protocol. There are many houses nearby, so wireless interference is a hindrance and unfortunate reality.
With this router, which I discovered through online computer site reviews and other sources, I think we have beaten the system. It works very well, establishes a high-speed, robust connection between the FIOS modem, and also allows other devices to connect with great 'n' connections as well.
Overall, I am very pleased with this product. It runs as advertised and has solved our quirky problem.
BEWARE, this device only broadcasts on the 802.11n and 802.11a protocols. This is not your everyday router. It will either work with your newest wireless devices (enabled for 802.11n or the very old 802.11a) or you will have to run a second b/g router to work with "older" wireless devices (Tivo, Playstation 3, iPhones etc.). This is not a problem for me, but I didn't think about that before I bought it.
Would recommend this product to anyone looking to provide a dedicated, high-speed wireless connection between two important devices, but not as your everyday router.
