Congratulations on purchasing the Motorola WU830G Wireless USB Adapter!

With the WU830G, your laptop or desktop computer is free to join and enjoy all the benefits of an 802.11b/g wireless home or small office network. Once connected, accessing a single broadband connection with everyone else on the network is simple and fun. You can also share files, pictures, peripherals, printers, and more. You’ll need one WU830G for each computer.

Because your WU830G works with USB 2.0 (and is backward compatible with USB 1.0 and 1.1), you’ll be able to enjoy blazing fast speeds on your wireless network. Since the WU830G receives its power from the USB port, there is no extra power plug to overload your power strip.

The WU830G complies with the 802.11b and the new, nearly

5-times-faster, 802.11g wireless standard. With Wi-Fi®Protected Access (WPA) included, your wireless connections are robust and secure, giving you the confidence to communicate without fear that the signal could be compromised.
