Product Description
Includes: USB cable and Setup CD-ROM. Connect your USB-equipped desktop or notebook computer to a wireless network at incredible speeds with the Linksys Wireless-G USB Network Adapter with SpeedBooster. Using your high-speed USB 2.0 port, the Adapter delivers incredible data rates without the trouble of opening up the case of your computer. The Wireless-G USB Network Adapter with SpeedBooster incorporates the next generation of Wireless-G. In standard Wireless-G (802.11g) mode, the USB Adapter can connect to wireless networks at an amazing 54Mbps. With our new SpeedBooster technology enabled, your "real-world" wireless network performance increases by up to 35%! Unlike other speed-enhancing technologies, SpeedBooster 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 with SpeedBooster you'll see an overall speed improvement even when running a mixed network of SpeedBooster and regular Wireless-G devices. To install, simply plug the Adapter into any available USB port. (It's compatible with both USB 1.1 and 2.0 ports, but 2.0 will yield the fastest speeds.) It gets its power through the USB connection, so no power cord is necessary. The included Setup Wizard walks you through configuring the Adapter to your wireless network settings, step by step. The Adapter is also compatible with the Wireless-B (802.11b) network standard, with data rates up to 11Mbps. And your wireless communications can be protected by 128-bit encryption, so your data stays secure. The high-gain antenna lets you put your computer almost anywhere in the building, without the cost and hassle of running 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

This has been the BEST wireless adapter I’ve purchased so far. It has killer connection speed and the transfer speed. I’ve now bought 4 of these and one is on my server. It is worth the money!

Instant connection to my encrypted in-home network. No set up required. No download required. All I needed was my network access code. Great item.
I fussed around for weeks with different products trying to set up an access point closer to the computer on the other side of the house from my router. My purpose was to get a stronger signal for the remote computer. Nothing worked until I discovered this product. Now, instead of the sometimes one bar signal, I get four or five bars constantly with no disconnects.
I am amazed that none of the Customer Service folks suggested this item instead of putting me through the suggested failed set up processes.
Absolutely perfect !

Hi,
After installing the program from the CD, my computer just keep on restarting! Then I call Linksys and they help me to set up using Windows XP’s Wireless Network Connection – then it works properly! Do not use the cd installation – it is screwy.

I use WEP encryption; and it is very easy to just enter a
passphrase instead of remembering the 26 digit code; I had
a minor problem due to 2 speedbooster adapters in close proximity that cause an interference during setup; but everything is now working flawlessly. I have three computer upstairs and the linksys router downstairs; and I am getting avaerage 48 MB transmission, and very good signal strength.

This product has worked great with my 2Wire Gateway modem from AT&T Yahoo.
The real plus has been the USB connection so its not necessary to take off the desktop’s back panel.
The connection has been good, and I set it up in minutes.
I tend to think that people who are having connection problems have a problem with their router, and not this device. I can see 50%+ networks from all over my neighborhood.

Just a quick positive review so people can get a fair view. I bough this product a few days ago and have been saving the receipt like a 100 dollar bill. Today I decided to file it. The product has been working GREAT. I have a Microsoft router in my laptop and connected my mother’s 10 year old Acer computer through the Linksys USB adapter. Although it says it works better with 2.0 USB’s (which are faster) my mom’s pc has the 1.0 and she still gets good connections (up tp 56kbs) It is also super easy to set up. My mom, who isn’t that pc saavy, already leraned to use the security feautures. All in all, considering how well it has worked I’m giving the product 5 stars.
