Product Description:
As home wireless networking continues to evolve, the need for increasingly faster speeds and greater range becomes more attractive. New applications like video-streaming, while not possible with 802.11b, are attainable at higher speeds, prompting users to seek the most powerful available solution for their networking needs. NETGEAR's WG111 54 Mbps Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter enables this. At 54 Mbps, it is up to 5x faster than 802.11b, and has greater range than 802.11b wireless products. The USB 2.0 interface allows the full throughput of 802.11g to be available, simply by plugging this into the external USB slot of your desktop or notebook PC. New antenna technology has increased range beyond what was ever possible with previous generation Wi-Fi adapters. Keep your network private with WEP encryption, upgradeable to even more secure WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access). Setup is now made quick and easy with our Smart Wizard install assistant. The WG111 has a compact pocket-sized casing and with the included 5 ft. USB cable, it can easily be placed anywhere near your computer for optimal signal strength for best performance.

Customer Reviews


great signal
This is a great device to replace a laptop wireless card or give a desktop wireless access. The product was easy to install and the wizard quickly located my wireless router and allowed me to connect to it. The whole thing is quite hassle free. My signal is consistently strong since I started using it as a replacement for my internal wireless adapter for my laptop.

The only issue I've had is that the adapter gets really hot and occasionally, after waking up from standby mode the laptop doesn't detect the usb wireless adapter. That may be an issue with my computer.

Generally, the adapter is an inexpensive and useful product that does it's job satisfactorily.


LOW COST WIRELESS ADAPTER
tHE NETGEAR WIRELESS ADAPTER WORKS WELL BUT IS SLOW TO BOOT UP, TAKING SOMEWHAT LONGER THAN OTHER TYPES.


Piece of Junk
Worked ok at first then started randomly disconnecting. I have XP and I found out after much troubleshooting that this was the reason my computer kept freezing!!! Complete freeze no ctr+alt+del had to manually turn off my system. Spend the money for a nicer better one. Look at all the bad reviews, DO NOT BUY!!


Doesn't work and merchant won't allow returns
This product is horrible. We own a Belkin and it works, unlike this wireless adapter. I thought I'd try this one since it's smaller and a bit less money, but it doesn't doesn't pick up any signal from our modem, and the modem is across the hall in the next room. In addition, I bought it from State Street Deals, and they won't let us return it because it's been opened. How else would we find out it doesn't work? Definitely NOT a great product, or merchant. I'd avoid both at any cost.


NETGEAR WG111 Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter (54 Mbps)
This product is one of the cheapest Wireless USB adapters available. I bought two. Software not included. Requires purchaser go to netgear and download software. I had issues with install on one computer, but I resolved it. Good Deal.
