12.1 WLAN Standards
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) de-
fined the WLAN standards IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g,
IEEE 802.11n and IEEE 802.11i.
The IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11n standards
define the transmission rate within a wireless radio network.
IEEE 802.11i is a security standard.
Standards for the Throughput Rate
Data Throughput
The throughputs listed differentiate between gross and net
transmission rates. The net speed describes the transmission
rate of the user data.
The FRITZ!Box supports your choice of the standards
IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11n. WLAN devices
based on one or more of the standards listed can be used for
WLAN connections with the FRITZ!Box.
Standard Frequency Band Gross Data Throughput
up to Net Data Throughput
up to
802.11b 2.4 GHz 11 Mbit/s 5 Mbit/s
802.11g 2.4 GHz 54 Mbit/s 25 Mbit/s
802.11n 2.4 GHz 150 Mbit/s 80 Mbit/s
