Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
The DWL-G520+ provides speeds of up to 54Mbps when TM used with other D-Link AirPlusXtremeG+ and other 802.11g products. This compares favorably with 802.11b adapters that offer 11Mbps speed, and with 802.11b+ adapters that give 22Mbps transmission. This enhanced speed and adoption of 2.4GHz frequency, now available for public use in most countries, plus the mobility and convenience inherent in a wireless LAN, make this card an ideal solution for bandwidth intensive WLAN applications.Apart from the higher theoretical network data transfer speed of 54Mbps for 802.11g against the 11Mbps for 802.11b, the DWL-G520+ also delivers a much faster data transmission than other wireless LAN adapters. In a typical working environment with multiple users accessing the network at the same time, the DWL-G520+ operates at 8 times the speed of a normal 802.11b wireless LAN adapter, which is made possible by means of an embedded turbo engine on-board this card.Like the 802.11b and 802.11b+ adapters, the DWL-G520+ uses a single 2.4GHz wireless frequency, eliminating the complexity of dual-band networking. 802.11g compatibility with existing wireless LAN standards means that you do not need to change your entire network to maintain connectivity. You may sacrifice some of 802.11g speed when you mix 802.11b and 802.11b+ with 802.11g devices, but you will not lose the ability to communicate.By maintaining compatibility with your existing wireless network equipment, this adapter lets you upgrade to a higher speed at the pace you want. The DWL-G520+ and other 802.11g standard devices can be gradually added to your network, while the rest of your older network remains perfectly connected.In addition to offering faster data transfer speeds, this card also provides the newest, strongest, most advanced security features available today. For home users that do not incorporate a radius server in their networks, security is provided in a convenient, automatic way (when used in conjunction with other 802.11g products). No longer will you have to frequently input a new WEP key to execute security operations. With the DWL-G520+, you will automatically receive a new key every time you connect, doing away with the inconvenience of manual WEP key input. The DWLG520+ provides a stronger network security with 64, 128 and 256-bit WEP data encryption.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Good range, good price, good speed..., 18 Jan 2004
    By A Customer
    While the fact that to install this piece of hardware, you have to open up the case of your PC, a task that has most people running, I found that the good instructions, together with the clam shell opening system on my new dell computer meant that instalation was a breeze, its also got a good range, meaning that I can now share the internet connection between the house and my office at the end of the garden. I recomend this for anyone who wants a well priced wireless access point and doesnt want another 'box' cluttering the desktop.

    5.0 out of 5 stars easy to install and easy to use, 13 Oct 2004
    I was slightly bemused when I opened the box and read the quick setup instructions; I got the impression that the instructions as I expect with most that you get out of a box were going to be useless. However much to my delight the card is a breeze to install, simply install the software off the CD first (which I thought to be strange, normally its the other way around. But trust me its does not work if you plug the card in first. Don't ask me how I know that!!) and then simply plug in the card and away you go. If you have matched the wireless card with a Dlink router as I have it detects it straight away and you have connection straight way. The instructions are brief for a reason. To summarise very good.
