Chapter 1: Introduction

The Wireless-G Game Adapter gives any wired Ethernet-equipped game con-
sole wireless connection capabilities. The Game Adapter can be used in two
different ways. If you have an existing home wireless network and a cable or
DSL Internet connection, the Game Adapter lets your PlayStation

or GameCube™ attach to the network so you can get into online games with-
out running wires to the game room. Or, use a pair of Game Adapters to form
a "cable-less cable" between two game consoles for head-to-head gaming -- in
the same room, or all the way across the house.

It's completely driver-free, so it works on any platform. Since there's no driv-
ers to load, setup is a snap. In some cases, it works right out of the box! If your
setup's a little different -- just configure the network settings through your PC's
web browser, plug it into your game box, and go.

The Wireless-G Game Adapter provides lag-free gaming with communication
speeds up to 54Mbps when connected to other Wireless-G devices. It can also
connect to Wireless-B (802.11b) devices and networks at 11Mbps.
