The AddLogix Adapter allows an affordable and speedy connection to wireless networks and works with both Macs and PC's.
May 22, 2006 -- The USB 2.0 Wireless Adapter by Addlogix allows users to easily connect desktop or notebook computers to wireless networks for Internet and file sharing. Mac and PC users alike will find this adapter to be an invaluable tool. It offers the best OS compatibility in the market and supports Macintosh OS, Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, XP and Linux Redhat (v7.1 and later).
Mac users stand to benefit the most from this product, as it offers a cost effective wireless solution for Apple users that have machines that are either older models that did not come with the built-in wireless miniPCI adapter, or for some reason have machines with a defective miniPCI. The USB Wireless Adapter provides Mac users superior connectivity and performance at a fraction of the cost of other products on the market today.
The compact and sleek Wireless Adapter simply plugs into the external USB port of your computer, eliminating the need to install internal devices into your desktop or notebook, or having to deal with unsightly Ethernet cables. The USB Adapter offers 802.11g wireless connectivity for your PC while delivering the convenience and speed of a USB 2.0 interface. The adapter is 802.11g compliant, with backward compatibility with 802.11b devices.
The adapter offers users unparalleled flexibility and mobility. The desktop computer can be placed anywhere in the home or office, and allows users to move about freely with their notebooks. In fact the adapter is so portable that users can share the same adapter between PCs and Macs. The USB Wireless Adapter offers the convenience of connectivity on-the-go. The lightweight adapter fits in the palm of your hand, and can be transported in your laptop bag to use when traveling. Simply connect the adapter to any hotel room's Internet network and you're instantly online with a wireless connection.
Don't be fooled by its small size: this adapter packs a powerful punch. Featuring the latest in wireless technology, the adapter offers enhanced security features for better data encryption and user authentication. It works with Windows XP SP1 security WPA functions, which protects your network from wireless eavesdroppers without having to sacrifice performance.
Users will be impressed by its excellent receiver sensitivity (best-in-class). It delivers superior performance in real world operating environments even in the presence of other wireless LAN and Bluetooth TM devices, as well as microwave oven interference. Its low CPU utilization reserves system resources for other functions. The wireless adapter lets the user Create a software Access Point (AP) on a notebook, which then enables sharing of Internet access with others. The software AP allows up to 253 computers to share one single IP address. The user also has the option of switching computers and designating another PC as an Access Point at any time. Users can also extend the range of their wireless networks by using the Wireless Distribution System (WDS), which acts as a bridge/repeater to enhance network coverage.
Setup is made quick and easy with a new Wizard install assistant. The wireless adapter lets the user perform several utilities with ease. It acts as a Mobile control center, allowing the user to integrate all tools and indicate real time status information on the system tray. It also makes it easy to diagnose and configure wireless network settings with an online trouble-shooting feature. A special feature called the Mobile manager supports automatic roaming and network reconfiguration between different locations. Site survey is another feature that lets the user explore the wireless networking topology with ease. To ensure that users are kept up-to-date, a Live Update feature lets users download the newest drivers and utilities from the Internet.
