USB Wireless Adapter

Draft 2.0 802.11n hardware is now making the rounds and is finally given many people reason to upgrade. As the new standard makes it onto more and more routers many people are seeing enough gain to upgrade their individual PCs with new wireless network cards. If you’re still suffering with the range and speed of an 802.11b wireless device and have been putting off upgrading because of high prices, Digitus may have something to help you take the leap.

Their new wireless LAN adapter has just been released and supports the draft 2.0 N standard. It also supports the very user friendly WPS security mode for quick push-button connectivity. While slightly larger than most USB WiFi adapters, 90% percent of its body is actually a 3dBi antenna. This is funny since Buffalo has a tiny 802.11n adapter whose USB connector makes up for large part of the dongle. Anyway, this integrated antenna should allow you to get the most out of wireless-N’s greatly improved range. The adapter also supports all of the new security standards like WEP, WPA, WPA2. it can be found for about $45 and should be hitting major retailers soon.
