Title: Dual Band Support of the DIR 628 and Dual Band laptop adapter card
Post by: DRDISK on August 06, 2009, 12:05:45 PM

Hi! First post here.  Looking at buying the D-Link DIR-628 RANGEBOOSTER N Dual Band Wireless Router (2.4 and 5 GHZ).... What is the complimentary D-Link USB/Desktop/Laptop adapter card ? All the cards I see (DWA-642, 643) on the D-Link site are single band only (2.4GHZ ?)... Does D-Link offer a Dual Band card  to allow a purchaser of the 628 to take advantage of the 2.4 and 5 GHZ Dual Band modes ?  Thanks so much

You must note that the DIR-628 router is a 2.4Ghz router OR 5.0Ghz router.  You can not use the router with the two radio bands at the same time.
