If you have read all my blog, you should noticed month ago I bought new HP nx8220 PY538ES notebook. So the next purchase was wireless access point D-Link DWL-G700AP.

Here is some product features:
The DWL-G700AP is Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11g compliant, meaning that it can connect and interoperate with other 802.11g compatible wireless client devices. The G700AP is also backwards compatible to 802.11b.

It is really easy to use. With its web-based setup wizard, the DWL-G700AP Access Point ensures that you will be up and running on a wireless network in just a matter of minutes. The DWL-G700AP also includes an embedded DHCP server that can automatically assign IP addresses to wireless network clients.

What could I say about it? So far, so good. You can just plug-in it and forgot about it.
Manufacturer says it is up to 54mbps and actually I have such speed because I put it under the desk. Also I have tried connection and speed in various places. And I could say when I was under 3 walls I still have quite a good signal and speed (approximately about 32mbps and sometimes more!!!)

It is my second Access Point, previous one was also D-Link but only 802.11b compliant. So the speed was only up to 11mbps and it was really few. So if you are going to by AP, you should use 802.11g compatible or more! (Be sure your client device is also compatible to 802.11g)
