Connect your USB-equipped desktop or notebook computer to a wireless net-
work at incredible speeds with the Linksys Wireless-G Portable USB Adapter. By
incorporating two new, blazing fast technologies -- USB 2.0 and Wireless-G --
the Adapter delivers data rates up to 54Mbps (5 times as fast as 802.11b),
without the trouble of opening up the case of your desktop computer.
To install, simply plug the Adapter into any available USB port. (It's compatible
with both USB 1.1 and 2.0 ports, but 2.0 will yield the fastest speeds.) You can
plug it directly into your PC and adjust the tilt-and-swivel connector and swing-
up antenna for best reception, or use the included USB Extension Base to put
the Adapter anywhere you'd like, up to six feet away.
It gets its power through the USB connection, so no power cord is necessary.
The included Setup Wizard walks you through configuring the Adapter to your
wireless network settings, step by step. The Wireless-G Portable USB Adapter is
also compatible with the Wireless-B (802.11b) network standard, with data rates
up to 11Mbps. And your wireless communications can be protected by 128-
bit encryption, and the new industrial-strength security of Wireless Protected
Access (WPA), so your data stays secure.
The Wireless-G Portable USB Adapter's high-gain antenna lets you put your
computer almost anywhere in the building, without the cost and hassle of run-
ning cables. Now you don't have to drill holes in your walls and climb through
the attic or cellar to get connected to the network. Once you're connected,
you can keep in touch with your e-mail, access the Internet, use instant mes-
saging to chat with friends, and share files and other resources such as printers
and hard disk storage space with other computers on the network.
So don't hassle with running cables through your house -- get connected the
easy way with the Wireless-G Portable USB Adapter.
