1-1 Introducing the LAN-Express IEEE 802.11
Wireless Adapter
LAN-Express IEEE 802.11 Wireless Adapter is a high performance wireless LAN
adapter that complies with the IEEE 802.11b and 802.11g wireless standards, which can
be used with 802.11b or 802.11g devices to form a stand-alone wireless Peer-to-Peer
Group* or used in conjunction with an Access Point infrastructure to provide mobile
clients with wireless access to an Ethernet network.
The LAN-Express IEEE 802.11 Wireless Adapter supports Windows XP, Windows 2000,
Windows Millennium Edition (ME), and Windows 98.
A wireless LAN provides the same functionality of a wired network, but it eliminates the
need to install networking cables and other networking equipment. A wireless LAN is not
only easier to deploy, but it also allows for mobility through “roaming.” For example, the
LAN-Express IEEE 802.11 Wireless Adapter can roam from a conference room to an
office without being disconnected from the network.
*Available features vary by region/country.
