Product Description

Product Description

A decent wireless adaptor is all that stands between happy surfing and frustrating hours spent trying to work out why the connection keeps dropping. The EW-7318USg is a Hi-Gain USB adaptor, so it should get a strong signal where other adaptors fail.It comes with a 4dBi aerial, which can be unscrewed and replaced with a larger aerial if you need it. Not that you should, as we managed to get a throughput of 16.45Mbit/s in our Far range test, which is good for a USB adaptor.

Product Description

EW-7318USg complies with IEEE802.11g standards and is backward comptiable with IEEE802.11b standards. With the connection speed up to 54Mbps 5 times faster then IEEE802.11b, EW-7318USg connects the laptop computer or desktop computer to the wireless network easily. You can also connect to any public wirless hotspot for Internet to retrieve e-mail, surf web sites or use instant messaging. EW-7318USg gives you the freedom to join the network.The installation and configuration is easy. You can configure EW-7318USg by either Windows wireless utilites or Edimax utilities. EW-7318USg supports advanced encryption, like WEP, WPA and WPA2 to secure the wireless transmission. With its Turbo Mode feature, it can increase the transmission speed 30% faster when connecting with other Edimax wireless devices, like adapter, access point or router.

The translation in the guidebook might not be the best but the instructions are clear and logical. I had no problems loading the software and following the on screen prompts. The adapter was up and running within 10 minutes, which included optimising it for increased performance.

It has replaced a Netgear WG111T and performs much better. As well as the aerial, which genuinely works, there's also a cable that allows you to move the adapter to further improve the signal if necessary.

For the price this product offers great value for money.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a great product, 20 Feb 2008
This review is from: Edimax EW-7318USG Wireless USB LAN Adapter 4dBi Antenna, 802.11b.g 54Mbps (Electronics)
Just received this morning. All set up within 5 minutes, well impressed with it. It's connected to my Netgear DG834G, and I'm using Vista.

As a tip, the disc comes with old drivers, so I went to the Edimax website, and navigated through to download the Vista drivers. Without plugging it in, I then ran the Vista installer, which seemed to not be doing much for a good 2-3 minutes. After that, you'll see an icon for it in the system-tray.

Right-click that, and open the configuration tool. Scan for your network, add in the key (I use 128bit) and hey presto. The connection is as fast, if not faster, than my the wired ethernet connection i used previously. My desktop is about 10meters away from the router, and I'm getting 100% link quality. Very very impressed. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
