1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this high-speed wireless network card! Excepting common wireless
standards 802.11b/g, this wireless network card is also able to access 802.11n wireless networks -
data transfer rate is 300Mbps, and that’s three times faster than 802.11g wireless network!
For WLAN security issues, this adapter supports 64/128-bit WEP data encryption that protects your
wireless network from eavesdropping. It also supports WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) feature
technology. Client users are required to authorize before accessing to APs or AP Routers, and the data
transmitted in the network is encrypted/decrypted by a dynamically changed secret key. Furthermore,
this adapter supports WPA2 function, WPA2 provides a stronger encryption mechanism through AES
(Advanced Encryption Standard), which is a requirement for some corporate and government users.
This adapter is cost-effective, together with the versatile features; it is the best solution for you to build
your wireless network.
