802.11n Wi-Fi standard finally approved
As predicted last month, the IEEE has finally approved the 802.11n high-throughput wireless LAN standard. Finalization of the new wireless networking standard–which is capable of delivering throughput speeds up to 300 megabits per second (and even higher)–took exactly seven years from the day it was conceived, or six years from the first draft version. The standard has been through a dozen or so draft versions.
