Description:
The Linksys Dual-Band Wireless A+G Notebook Adapter lets your notebook communicate with all three wireless network standards: 802.11b, 802.11a, and 801.11g. Typical 802.11b networks have a data rate of 11 Mbps, and are commonly found in corporate environments and in homes for household Internet connectivity without the need for running cables. They're also popping up all over the country in coffee shops, airports, hotels, convention centers, and other public spaces offering Internet "hot spots" to mobile users. In high speed or heavy usage environments, 802.11b is quickly being replaced by 802.11g, which uses the same 2.4 GHz radio band, but at 54 Mbps--almost five times faster. The third wireless network standard is 802.11a, which also runs at 54 Mbps, but operates in the less-crowded 5 GHz radio band. Corporations are the most common user of 802.11a networks. Whichever standard you use, the Dual-Band Wireless A+G Notebook Adapter is ready to connect. And it's simple to use. Just pop it into a PC Card slot and run the included Setup Wizard which will walk you through the configuration. All wireless communications can be protected by up to 152-bit encryption, so your data stays secure.
