Wireless-B Ethernet Bridge

Chapter 1: Introduction

Welcome

Thank you for choosing the Wireless-B Ethernet Bridge. The versatile Wireless-B Ethernet Bridge can make any
wired Ethernet-equipped device a part of your wireless network. At home, use the Wireless-B Ethernet Bridge to
connect game consoles, set-top boxes, or computers into your wireless network to share your high-speed
network connection. In the office, convert your Ethernet-wired printer, scanner, camera, notebook or desktop
into a wireless networked device.
It's completely driver-free, so it works on any platform and under any operating system! Since there are no
drivers to load, setup is a snap—just plug it into your device and configure the network settings through your
web browser.
You can also use the Wireless-B Ethernet Bridge 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 a Wireless-B Ethernet Bridge in the garage, and another one (or a
Wireless Access Point) in the house, you're connected—with no cabling hassle.
Let the Wireless-B Ethernet Bridge from Linksys open up exciting new possibilities for your wireless network.
