1 Introduction
1.1 The 11Mbps Wireless LAN USB Dongle
The 11Mbps Wireless LAN USB Dongle now has a new, higher-powered antenna that provides a
greater range than ever. The increased sensitivity helps filter out interference and notice to keep
your signal clear. Improved error correction in the chipset keeps you operating at higher
transmission rates for longer distances. And since you only need USB ports, you’re free to use
your other ports for additional accessories.
Plug-and-Play device, Windows 98SE/ME/2000/XP will automatically recognize the USB
wireless LAN Dongle and initiate the installation process. Upon successful installation, the USB
wireless LAN Dongle will communicate seamlessly with other wireless home and office
networking products.
Using radio frequency (RF) technology, WLANs transmit and receive data over the air,
minimizing the need for wired connections. Thus, WLANs combine data connectivity with user
mobility, and through simplified configuration, enable movable LANs. This wireless networking
solution has been designed for both large and small businesses, and it is scalable so that you
can easily add more users and new network features as your business grows.
This manual will assist you in the installing WLAN USB Dongle.
