INTRODUCTION

The 802.11g Wireless LAN Card is a device that allows you to connect your computer to a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). A wireless LAN allows your system to use wireless Radio Frequency (RF) technology to transmit and receive data without having to physically attach to the network. The wireless protocols that come with this product ensure data security and isolation from interference generated by other radio frequencies.

This card also allows you to take full advantage of your computer’s mobility with access to real-time information and online services anytime and anywhere. In addition, this device eliminates the hassle of pulling cable through walls and under furniture. It even allows you to place your system in locations where cabling is impossible. Modifying and augmenting networks has never been so easy.
