Dubai, UAE – November 2, 2004 – U.S. Robotics® has made it even easier for consumers and home office/small office users to set up a wireless network anywhere with simple plug and play connectivity. Available now for gift purchasing in the festive season, U.S. Robotics’ new Wireless Network Starter Kit comes with an 802.11g wireless USB adapter and an 802.11g wireless router. The kit’s convenient, all-in-one product packaging provides users with everything they need for an instant wireless network and installs in only three easy steps.

The USB adapter is lightweight and has the look and feel of a memory stick. The device can be plugged into any available USB (2.0 or 1.1) port of a desktop or notebook computer to make a direct wireless connection to the wireless router. The USB’s wireless power control means that it uses minimum transmit power preserving the life of a laptop battery.

“Setting up a wireless network using our new wireless network starter kit could not be easier – just plug and play. Just like a memory stick, the USB adaptor simply plugs into any USB (2.0 or 1.1) port eliminating the need to open the case of a desktop computer or use any tools – saving users a great deal of hassle and enabling the creation of an instant wireless network connection to the starter kit’s wireless router. Users can then share secure internet access, files and peripherals such as printers with other computers on the network.” says Tony Field, Product Manager EMEA, U.S. Robotics.
