1. Getting Started
The A6100 WiFi USB Mini Adapter wirelessly connects your notebook or desktop computer to an
11ac network for applications such as lag-free video streaming throughout your home, online
gaming, and secure and reliable Internet connections.
In addition, Beamforming+ technology boosts the speed, reliability, and range of WiFi
connections. The mini adapter automatically uses NETGEAR Beamforming+ technology to
enhance WiFi performance with 802.11ac WiFi devices. Because it's automatic, you don't have
to turn on Beamforming+ or configure it. When you connect to the WiFi network, Beamforming+
focuses on your location for even better WiFi performance and speed. Beamforming+ locks onto
your laptop, tablet, or smartphone and follows as you move from place to place, so you keep
your optimal WiFi connection.
