Linksys WPC200 Overview:

Wireless-G Business Notebook Adapter with RangeBooster Wireless-G Notebook adapter provides extended range and secure access for your Business

The Linksys Wireless-G Business Notebook Adapter with RangeBooster installs in most Notebook PCs, and lets you put your computer almost anywhere in the building without the cost and hassle of running network cables.

RangeBooster technology is a compatible add-on to standard Wireless-G which increases your wireless network's range up to two times, and its throughput by up to 35%. Unlike ordinary wireless technologies that are confused by signal reflections, RangeBooster uses two smart receivers at each end to detect and decode reflected signals at distances where standard technologies give up. You'll find that "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area are reduced, too.

The Advanced security features makes this solution ideal for your Business. Advanced wireless security using Wi-Fi Protected Access™ (WPA2 Enterprise) with up to 256-bit encryption, and the new Wireless Security Monitoring functionality gives your business the visibility and protection it needs. Used when a Linksys WAP200 is present, the Wireless Security Monitoring functionality alerts you of possible wireless intruders and vulnerabilities in the wireless network deployment.
