54Mbps Wireless LAN USB Adapter + Cradle
The D-Link AirPlus G™ DWL-G122 Wireless USB Adapter is a convenient Plug & Play USB 2.0 solution that brings wireless networking to your laptop or desktop PC. With transfer rates of up to 54Mbps you can connect to a wireless network at home, at the office or in any wireless hotspot. Now you can stay connected wherever you are and wherever you go.
The DWL-G122 is Wi-Fi™ compliant, meaning that it can connect and interoperate with other 802.11b or 802.11g Wi-Fi-compliant wireless routers, Access Points and adapters. The DWL-G122 connects to any available USB port on a laptop or Windows/Macintosh-based desktop and also includes a USB cradle. With the optional USB cradle, the DWL-G122 can be positioned virtually anywhere at a workstation to achieve the best available wireless signal reception - whether that workstation is in your office, on your patio, at the local coffee shop, or in an airport terminal while waiting to board your next flight.
The adapter works with Apple Mac OS X 10.3 or later* and Microsoft Windows operating systems to ensure that you’ll be up and running on a wireless network in just a matter of seconds.
Using its default settings, the DWL-G122 automatically connects to other D-Link Air or AirPlus wireless products as soon as it’s active.
In addition to featuring 64- or 128-bit WEP encryption, the DWL-G122 offers the added security of WPA/WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access) when used with other WPA/WPA2 devices in a network with a RADIUS server.
Even home users who will not incorporate a RADIUS server in their network will find security for the DWL-G122 to be much stronger than ever before when the Pre-Shared Key mode of WPA / WPA2 is used.
