wireless networks. The SMC2802W is extremely fast and can handle streaming video,
multimedia and all other bandwidth-intensive applications. Wireless clients can now
easily obtain instant, seamless high-speed network connection. The new and improved
SMC2802W significantly increases the performance of mixed-mode (802.11b and 802.11
g) networks and 802.11g-only networks - up to 3x more throughput in mixed-mode
networks and up to 50% throughput improvement in 802.11g-only networks. It also
increases the range and provides extended coverage in your home or office.
The EZ Connect™ g Wireless PCI Card includes an EZ Installation Wizard that enables
quick and easy setup. Simply put the EZ Installation Wizard CD into your CD-ROM drive,
