The Nexus One may be upgraded to 802.11n Wi-Fi when Android 2.2 will ship, as Broadcom and Google have discretely released new drivers for the Wi-Fi chipset of the smartphone. These drivers would enable 802.11n. Although the drivers are not yet part of the operating system, they were compiled for Android 2.1 and were successfully connected to the much faster wireless networking. Analysts observed that the hardware was capable to work at higher speeds but had not been used at its highest capacity until now.
