Buffalo Technology WHR3-G54 is a versatile wireless router designed to deliver reliable connectivity and efficient network performance. Targeted at home users and small offices, the WHR3-G54 combines ease of use with advanced features suitable for everyday internet activities.

One of the standout characteristics of the WHR3-G54 is its compliance with the IEEE 802.11g wireless standard, which allows for wireless connectivity at speeds of up to 54 Mbps. This makes it suitable for activities such as browsing the internet, streaming media, and online gaming.
