Linksys WAP54G Wireless-G Access Point

LINKSYS WAP54G - Wireless-G is the emerging 54 Mbps 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. The best part is, since they share the same 2.4GHz radio band, Wireless-G devices talk to existing 11 Mbps Wireless-B equipment.

    Amazon.com Product Description

Because both standards are built-in, you can protect your investment in existing 802.11b infrastructure, and migrate your network clients to the new screaming-fast Wireless-G standard as your needs grow.

    For more information on the differences between an access point and a router with access point, see the following table:

    access point vs. router To protect your data and privacy, the Wireless-G access point can encrypt all wireless transmissions. The MAC address filter lets you decide exactly who has access to your wireless network. Configuration is a snap with the Web browser-based configuration utility.

    Wireless-G is the upcoming 54 Mbps 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 2.4 GHz radio band, Wireless-G devices can also work with existing 11 Mbps Wireless-B equipment.

    Future-proof your wireless network with the Linksys Wireless-G access point. You'll enjoy Wireless-B connectivity today, and be prepared for a high-speed Wireless-G tomorrow.

    Wireless networks are rapidly becoming more popular and coming down in price. Since they don't require cables, you can use the devices anywhere in an office or home, even out on the patio. There's no need to roll out an Ethernet network cable to each room of a house; you can network anywhere--without wires. Outside the home, wireless networking is available in hotspots at coffee shops, businesses, and airports--great when you're on the road and need to get some work done. For convenience, wireless networking is the answer.

    Which Wireless Standard Is Right for Me?
    Now that you've decided to create a wireless network, the next step is to figure out which wireless standard to use.

    Basically, a standard is a set of specifications for a device. All devices that follow a specific standard share operating characteristics, such as the radio frequency used and maximum data transfer speed.

    For wireless networking, there are three standards to choose from at this time:

  • 802.11b
  • 802.11a
  • 802.11g

    Easy to use, I now have two.5
    You can make a cheaper wireless router work as an access point, but why bother? These are so easy to set up you will find he extra cost worth the price. I won't restate what others have said. Just this one point. If you test you network with netstumbler you will see what wifi frequencies are in use--configured your device for an unused frequency for best performance.

    Also set the device for a fixed ip address so you can easily make changes later on--write the ip number on the device so you have a rference.

    Works great, I do have to power cycle the device every 3-4 days because it stops responding, and I loose connection.

    easy set up5
    I am using this in conjunction with a business router that my employer put it. Extremely easy to set up, laptop connected immediately.
