Back To School : Linksys Wireless-G Access Point with SRX

Manufacturer's description

The Linksys Wireless-G Access Point with SRX lets you connect Wireless-G (802.11g), Wireless-B (802.11b), and new SRX-enhanced devices to your wired network so you can add PCs to the network without the cabling hassle. Create a "wireless bubble" in that hard-to-wire home or office space, and save the time, hassle, and expense of running cables. Plus, notebook PCs can travel around your home or office and stay connected wherever they go.

The Wireless-G Access Point with SRX combines smart antenna technology with standards-based Wireless-G (802.11g) networking. By overlaying the signals of two Wireless-G compatible radios, the "Multiple In, Multiple Out" (MIMO) technology effectively doubles the data rate. And unlike ordinary wireless networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections, MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the range and reduce "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area. The robust signal travels farther, maintaining wireless connections up to 3 times farther than standard Wireless-G. And the farther away you are, the more advantage you get - the higher data rate and reflection-friendly technology can yield up to 8 times more throughput than Wireless-G in some situations. The access point avoids interference by dynamically switching to the clearest channel available. Even your standard Wireless-G and -B equipment will work better when communicating with an SRX-enabled access point.

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) protects your data and privacy with up to 128-bit industrial-strength encryption. You can use the MAC Address filter to decide exactly who has access to your wireless network.

The Linksys Wireless-G Access Point with SRX is the best way to add wireless capability to your existing home or small office network.
