Addlogix Offers Up USB Wireless Adapter

The Addlogix USB 2.0 Wireless Adapter works with a variety of different operating platforms to offer an inexpensive way to connect to a local wireless network.

Addlogix, a manufacturer of interface cables, earlier this week announced a new USB wireless adapter for connecting computers to wireless networks. The new Addlogix USB 2.0 Wireless Adapter is priced at around $40 and available now.

The Addlogix USB 2.0 Wireless Adapter, the company said, plugs into an external USB port of a Windows, Mac or Linux based computer. Through this connection it delivers an 802.11g wireless connection so one can connect over a local wireless network while being offered enhanced security features for data encryption and user authentication. It is also backwards compatible with 802.11b devices.

Other features of the Addlogix USB 2.0 Wireless Adapter include letting users create a software access point so others can share Internet access and a series of software tools which let one do things like diagnose and configure wireless network settings; control automatic roaming and network reconfiguration between different locations; and explore the wireless networking topology.
