No, not really, at least not with wireless, if that's what you mean? From
what it says at that link, it can send/receive data on two different bands
simultaneously, but I would assume to get this to work, you'll need a Dlink
card that supports their implementation.

If you want to use both bands with the same PC you would need 2 PC wireless
cards. I believe that there are download applications that will use two
cards at the same time to reduce download time. AFAIK a more common use of
the dual functionality is to support two different wireless client
concurrently.

Yes, I know that. I meant with High-Definition, and other media, answering
your question as to whether I've worked with it or not.

As for wireless, I've implemented multiple Cisco APs using AD and GPO
Certificate Autoenrollment with WPA2. Matter of fact, I wrote a paper on it.
And for video, we used a third party product to handle video conferencing,
with their own bridge, etc, and the clients (wired and wireless) simply used
the client side app.

But to answer your specific question, no, I haven't used Dlink's
implementation.
