Digital camera reviews of Cisco-Linksys WPC54G-WB Wireless-G Notebook Adapter White Box
Digital camera Review: Easy to use, poor range
Summary: 2 Stars
The installation was a breeze and using the software is easy, however the range seems to be very lacking. I bought this product for my finacee to use primarily at my home where I have a D Link wireless router with one of those range extending antennas. My laptop with an internal card gets a strong signal and quick internet anywhere in my house, however her computer using this card gets only a very weak signal or no signal at all in most of the house until she gets within about 10 to 15 feet of the router. The signal only 25 feet or so away from the router is so weak that it takes gmail about 5 minutes to load the inbox, if you move closer in then it works much faster. I also have an Xbox 360 with the Xbox wireless adapter set up on the opposite side of the house of the router and it also gets a strong signal.
Summary of Cisco-Linksys WPC54G-WB Wireless-G Notebook Adapter White Box
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 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 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 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.PCMCIA Network Cards
