It's the easiest way
to get connected to wireless networks! There's no need to open
the case of your computer -- just plug the Linksys Wireless
Compact USB Adapter into an available USB port on your notebook
or desktop computer, and you're ready to communicate. The
included Setup Wizard takes you through the network setup, step
by step. And since the adapter is hot-pluggable, you can take it
with you from home, to work, and back.
Once you're
connected, you can keep in touch with your e-mail, surf the web,
use instant messaging to chat with friends across the Internet,
and share files and other reSOURCEs such as printers and network
storage with other computers on the network. With a portable
computer, 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.
The Wireless
Compact USB Adapter is fully compliant with the 802.11b wireless
network standard, transferring data at up to 11Mbps in the
2.4GHz radio band. If distance or interference starts to degrade
the signal, the Adapter automatically drops down to slower
speeds, to keep you connected if at all possible. Wireless
communications are protected by up to 128-bit encryption, so
your data stays secure.

and Linksys reliability, get the Wireless Compact USB Adapter.
