"The Linksys Wireless-G PCI Card with SpeedBooster installs in most desktop
and tower PCs, and lets you put your computer almost anywhere in the build-
ing without the cost and hassle of running network 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 messaging to chat with
friends, and share files and other resources such as printers and network stor-
age with other computers on the network.
The Wireless-G PCI Card with SpeedBooster incorporates the next generation
of Wireless-G. In standard Wireless-G (802.11g) mode, the Card can connect
to wireless networks at an incredible 54Mbps. With our new SpeedBooster
technology enabled, your "real-world" wireless network performance
increases by up to 35%! Unlike other speed-enhancing technologies, Speed-
Booster is 802.11 compliant, fully compatible with standard Wireless-G, and a
"good neighbor" to other wireless devices and technologies, using a single
2.4GHz channel as specified by the official wireless standard. And, unlike
other technologies, with SpeedBooster you'll see an overall speed improve-
ment even when running a mixed network of SpeedBooster and regular Wire-
less-G devices.
For added versatility, it can also interoperate with all the 11Mbps Wireless-B
(802.11b) products found in homes, businesses, and public wireless hotspots
around the country. In any mode, your wireless communications are pro-
tected by industrial-strength Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) encryption, so your
data stays secure.
So don't hassle with running cables through your house -- get your desktop
connected the easy way with the Linksys Wireless-G PCI Card with Speed-
Booster.
