Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
Wireless-G is the upcoming 54Mbps wireless networking standard that's almost five times faster than the widely deployed Wireless-B (802.11b) products found in homes, businesses, and public wireless hotspots around the country – but since they share the same 2.4GHz radio band, Wireless-G devices can also work with existing 11Mbps Wireless-B equipment.

The new Wireless-G Notebook Adapter from Linksys has both standards built in, so you can connect your notebook to existing 802.11b infrastructure, and also the new screaming fast Wireless-G networks. The included Setup Wizard will walk you through configuring the adapter to your network's settings, step by step. Then just slide it into your notebook's PC Card slot and enjoy network access with your notebook computer, while retaining true mobility.

Once you're connected, you can keep in touch with your e-mail, access the Internet, and share files and other resources such as printers and network storage with other computers on the network, wherever you wander. At home, you can surf the web or use instant messaging to chat with friends while sitting out on the patio.

You'll also be able to connect with any of the growing number of public wireless hotspots springing up in coffee shops, airport lounges, hotels and convention centers. And as those hotspots upgrade to the new high-speed Wireless-G standard, you'll be ready to take advantage of the increased speeds.

Get connected to current-standard 802.11b networks today, and be prepared for the future with the Wireless-G Notebook Adapter from Linksys.

5.0 out of 5 stars Seamless & powerful integration with WinXP, 17 Jan 2004
By Alan Moore "amosam" (Glasgow) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
There is really little to say about this little card other than it has workhorse performance and is really easy to set up.

I can happily report I've encountered no such problems with the Linksys kit - it just works superbly. Ok, they are not the cheapest but they are the biggest and best by a country mile. The few quid extra is worth it.

Linksys are a division of Cisco - says it all really. My relatively simple setup is a hardwired broadband desktop into which I put the Linksys 54G PCI card. I then placed the PCMCIA 54G cards into two laptops. Less than a dozen mouse-clicks later I had a fully WEP enabled wireless home network; sharing broadband internet, folders and a printer. Scary or what!

Total setup time (including fitting the PCI card): 1 hour.

Linksys also have a superb website and support infrastructure. I really knew very little about networking when I bought these items (actually I still don't) but thankfully they are painless to implement and do the job well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simplicity itself, 7 April 2003
By Hal (Beckenham, London) - See all my reviews
I fitted this to my laptop and the associated router to my new NTL broadband modem when my broadband was installed on Saturday. It took all of 5 minutes and I now have wireless broadband which is simply brilliant. The set up of the laptop card was simplicity itself - just plug it in and away you go. You need to connect up the router (I used the Linksys Wireless-G Router - also from Amazon) to the modem first. The longest part of the exercise was reinstalling Norton Internet Security (which you should uninstall before any broadband installations) - but within 5 mins of reinstalling it, it prevented some hacker from Berlin (Norton can tell you where the attack is from) hacking my new system. I am not a techy, just an average user, but this product is brilliant and simplicity itself. Very strongly recommended: 5-star.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing and so easy to set up!!!, 5 Jan 2005
By Mr. C. Bunch "mr_c1999" (Kent, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you need to connect to the net wirelessly then look no further than this little device along with the broadband router and you just can't go wrong. I am useless with computers and yet I managed to set up the router in ten minutes and this with my notebook in literally five, insert a disk, insert the card, a few clicks and your done. The performance is fantastic and you'll not regret the purchase.
