hassle and expense of running cables. Plus notebook PCs can travel around your home or office and stay connected wherever they go. Since both standards are built in you can protect your investment in existing Wireless-B infrastructure and migrate your network devices to screaming fast Wireless-G standard as your needs grow. You can also use the Wireless-G Access Point as a kind of "cable-less cable" to connect remote areas together. Maybe Shipping is all the way across the warehouse from Receiving. Or maybe you want to set up a home office in your detached garage. With one Wireless-G Access Point in the garage and another one in the house you're connected at up to 54Mbps – with no cable to run. The new push button setup feature makes it easy to configure your wireless devices. Just push the button on the Access Point and on your other SecureEasySetup-enabled wireless device to automatically create an encryption-secured wireless connection. Wi-Fi Protected Access™ (WPA) protects your data and privacy with up to 128-bit industrial-strength encryption. You can use the MAC Address filter to decide exactly who has access to your wireless network. And for the ultimate in wireless protection the Wireless-G Access Point comes with built-in access to the Linksys Wireless Guard service (free trial included) which gives small businesses the security of WPA-RADIUS without the hassle of building an authentication server. Access Point configuration is a snap with the web browser-based configuration utility. The Linksys Wireless-G Access Point is the best way to add wireless capability to your existing home or small office network. Add high-speed Wireless-G access to your wired home or office network Data rates up to 54Mbps in Wireless-G (802.11g) mode and up to 11Mbps in Wireless-B (802.11b) Push button setup feature makes wireless configuration secure and simple Advanced wireless security: 128-bit WPA encryption MAC filtering and free trial of maximum security Linksys Wireless Guard WPA-RADIUS service

products used in homes, businesses and public wireless connection hotspots around the country. Given that wireless G and B devices share the same standards, you can also use wireless-G devices with your existing 11 Mbps wireless-B equipment and migrate your network clients to the new wireless G standard as your needs grow. To protect your data and privacy, the WAP54G-EU encrypts all wireless transmissions, while its MAC address filter controls who has access to your wireless network. Plus, configuration is really easy with the web browser-based settings. Take your wireless network up a level with the WAP54G-EU wireless access point.
Advantages: Fast, easy to configure, reasonable price for a Wireless Access Point Disadvantages: slight snag in set up. Easily resolved
My dearly beloved Linksys WAP11b passed on this week. At the request of the family there were no flowers but a small celebration was held to remember a long and hard working life and the opportunity to get a new one. Including VAT and delivery, for £48.15 , Novatech.co.uk sent me one of these little charmers. Let me explain my home setup:
The ADSL line starts at my phone line and passes through a Linksys ADSL ethernet ... ...the FAQ section of the Linksys website (Now you see why I like to have all the units separate) and I found the cause.
They mention that some cordless phones use the same 2.4 Ghz radio frequency as the WAP and to try changing the channel. They also mentioned that the default was 6, so back into the setup utility and change it from 11 to 6, where it should have been in the first place. as soon as I did this and closed the setup program, my wireless ...

Advantages: easy to set up, good range. Disadvantages: a bit sensitive
...almost anything you like! The Linksys website is also excellent, with lots of helpful information, and a regular supply of official firmware updates.
actually configuring it can be as simple or as complicated as you want to make it, but I would suggest taking the time to learn about wireless security and to implement some using the wap54, I would also urge anyone out there to make the SSID of the signal customised to you (this makes it less hackable) ... ...to something custom - again for security
except for the debacle with the cordless phones, this unit has been faultless and i am going to get another one to use at home!
expect to pay £35-£45 from most online retailers, and up to £55 on the high st. ...

Advantages: Cheap, instalation, WPA Disadvantages: Plastic, some config settings, Reliablity
...the WAP54G and being from Linksys meant it was also from Cisco and you can not get a Cisco wireless Access point for under £50 so I went for it.
The Specifications of the Linksys Had everything that I needed
B+G compatible in the 2.4 frequency category
Security includes 256 encryption, WEP, WPA, WPA -RADIUS So with this I went off to work on installing it.
Firstly I would like to say what a user friendly set up this Access Point (AP) has all ... ...port with a normal network cable run the CD, Run the set up Utility where it will auto detect the AP.
From there change the IP address to a static and of course give the AP a SSID (name).
And your more or less done. With this AP you get to use the far superior WPA-PSK which again is very easy to use with the Set up program so when it comes to ease of setting up this AP has top marks without sacrificing ease for security.
After finding a suitable ...
