D-Link DWL-120+ [6/38] Features

D-Link wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-

use and compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business

or public access wireless networks. D-Link wireless products will allow you

access to the data you want, when and where you want it. You will be able to

enjoy the freedom that wireless networking brings.

A WLAN is a cellular computer network that transmits and receives data with

radio signals instead of wires. WLANs are used increasingly in both home and

office environments, and public areas such as airports, coffee shops and

universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN technology are helping people to

work and communicate more efficiently. Increased mobility and the absence of

cabling and other fixed infrastructure have proven to be beneficial for many

users.

Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network.

Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same

protocols as Ethernet adapter cards.
