Preparing For WiFi.


150Mbps Wireless N Pico USB Adapter - Available in South Africa.

W311MI is a 802.11n compliant wireless USB Adapter that provides up to 4x faster wireless speeds and 3x better wireless reception over 802.11g products while staying backward compatible with 802.11g/b devices. This wireless adapter features a sleek compact design that fits into your computer's USB port with minimal protrusion making it ideal for use when traveling.

The W311MI connects your desktop or notebook computer with an available USB port to your wireless network for Internet access and file sharing. Desktop users can easily add wireless connectivity without having to open the PC case. Laptop users can easily upgrade to the latest 802.11n and get better range.


In addition, the wireless adapter supports advanced WPA/WPA2 security modes that ensure you will be able to share files and surf Internet within a secured connection. The Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) feature enables devices to quickly establish a secure connection to an access point or wireless router, eliminating complex encryption codes.
