Welcome
Thank you for purchasing the IEEE 802.11n Wireless USB Adapter. Wireless USB Adapter
has an extra foundation which is designed to make Wireless USB Adapter get better signal
when it is plugging into the foundation and can be easily move around. In addition, Wireless
USB Adapter is backward compatible with 802.11b/g. When Wireless USB Adapter is
connecting to the standard 802.11b, 802.11g or 802.11n APs or routers, it can perform
much better than other standard stations.
Wireless USB Adapter supports higher data throughput than the IEEE802.11n standard (up
to 300Mbps).
For the security of WLAN, Wireless USB Adapter supports 64/128-bit WEP data encryption
which protects your wireless network from eavesdropping.
It also supports WPA/WPA2 which combines IEEE802.1x and TKIP technologies. Client
users are required to authorize before accessing to APs or routers, and the data
transmitted on the network is encrypted and decrypted by a dynamically changed secret
key. Wireless USB Adapter supports WPA2 function which provides a stronger encryption
through AES which is the most advanced WLAN solution for IEEE802.11i. Besides,
Wireless USB Adapter supports WPS function which provides a stronger encryption and
easier configuration through WPA2 which is the most advanced WLAN solution for
IEEE802.11i.
