Editorial Review:Product Description:Linksys Wireless-G Notebook Adapter with SRX - Linksys has developed new technology that will greatly enhance your wireless networking experience. It's called SRX, or Speed and Range eXpansion. With an optional SRX router you can achieve up to 3 times the range of standard 802.11g, and up to 8 times the speed of standard 802.11g. Using two Wireless-G compatible radios, it overlays the signals to increase the data rate, and uses the signal reflections to increase range. Even your standard Wireless-G and -B equipment will work better when used with SRX devices!
Amazon.com Product Description:Whether you're upgrading to a higher-end adapter or setting up your first home network, the Linksys WPC54GX Wireless-G notebook adapter is your ticket to wireless convenience and optimal performance. The SRX-enhanced cardbus adapter gives you the mobility to use your laptop PC anywhere in the house--and, when used in concert with other SRX-enabled networking components, you'll enjoy unparalleled range and speed.
The WPC54GX uses Linksys's advanced SRX (Speed and Range eXpansion) technology, which enhances the speed and reach of a Wireless-G (802.11g) network. Relative to standard 802.11g technology, a network using all SRX products can extend network reach up to three times as far and boost wireless network speed by up to eight times. (Actual throughput, speed, and range depend on a host of factors, from building materials to network traffic and distance from your network router.)
The device is Wi-Fi-certified and backward compatible with 802.11b (Wireless-B), 802.11g (Wireless-G) and, of course, other Linksys SRX products. The minimum operating system requirement is Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Mixed wireless environments such as networks containing SRX, Wireless-B, and Wireless-G products can operate each client at its own maximum data rate. SRX products maintain their higher speed and range, providing the throughput and quality of service to deliver applications such as VoIP (Internet telephony) and video streaming.
SRX is based on MIMO (multiple-in, multiple-out) technology, a key component in the upcoming Wireless-N (802.11n) standard. To improve range and speed, MIMO uses two radios and three antennas on a wireless cardbus adapter or client adapter.
What's in the Box A Wireless-G cardbus adapter, a quick-installation guide, a resource CD-ROM, and a user's manual.

Wireless networks are rapidly becoming more popular and coming down in price. Since they don't require cables, you can use the devices anywhere in an office or home, even out on the patio. There's no need to roll out an Ethernet network cable to each room of a house; you can network anywhere--without wires. Outside the home, wireless networking is available in hotspots at coffee shops, businesses, and airports--great when you're on the road and need to get some work done. For convenience, wireless networking is the answer. Which Wireless Standard Is Right for Me? Now that you've decided to create a wireless network, the next step is to figure out which wireless standard to use.
Basically, a standard is a set of specifications for a device. All devices that follow a specific standard share operating characteristics, such as the radio frequency used and maximum data transfer speed. For wireless networking, there are three standards to choose from at this time:

I was totally satisfied with this product. It arrived in time and works well on my 4 years old ASUS notebook. Moreover, it even gets faster internet speed than my roommate, who is using a very new SONY notebook. It is a little warm when using and sometimes the driver didn't start correctly and need to be adjusted. That's may due to the age of my notebook.

This card is my work horse wireless card. Consistently have great signal strength and speed. I have even used the card from my neighbors house which was about 90 feet from the router (SRX200). The signal strength was still 90 per cent plus and the speed fabulous. This is a great PCMCIA card to use with the SRX200 or SRX400 Router.

This thing has remarkable range and strength. It is very reliable once you get it working (which of course, requires an hour of quality time with our friendly Indian friends).
