Hi Tech Legion posted Killer Wireless-N 1202 Mini PCIe NIC Review



Modern multiplayer games are, of course, designed with some compensation built into them for connection speeds, but even with that, sometimes odd things can happen. I have not heard the term LPB in a very long time, although I have certainly experienced cases where I have 100+ms ping on a server and someone in the 20ms range continues to wreak havoc on me. That is not to say that games are all about ping and not skill, because I am certainly not the most skilled player in the fast paced FPS genre where ping counts the most.

The Killer Wireless-N 1202 mini PCIe NIC card is designed to minimize latency, particularly when gaming. Qualcomm has optimized the chipset and software on the Killer Wireless-N 1202 by integrating a proprietary quality of service (QoS) technology that they call “Advanced Stream Detect”. The Advanced Stream Detect technology classifies network traffic based on bandwidth needs for a lag free experience. The Wireless-N 1102 adapters support dual band connections at 2.4GHz and 5GHz and 2 stream MIMO conforming to the 802.11a/b/g/n standards. The top speeds that can be reached are 300 Mbps using an 802.11n connection. Killer also integrates power saving technology into the chipsets and Bluetooth connectivity.
