300% is just a marketing thing. :) Well, try it and let me know if it still 300% capable. :)
Just boost output power to 50 mW and enjoy.

I see the 300% it's just an increase of mW in their produtcts ;)

300% increase means volume coverage increase and not distance. Distance increase is claimed as 30% when reading Broadcom specs. I think that reference antenna is dipole.

Actually they've increased 802.11g sensitivity (i.e. it would negotiate higher speed - "coverage") and bundled new power amplifier, which is capable of doing 80 mW (19dB) transmission.
