Introduction
With IEEE 802.11b standard-based, WL-U351 provides 11Mbps wireless networking for USB-enabled desktops or notebooks. It can operate in either Ad-Hoc mode (Point to Point/Point to Multipoint without Access Point) or Infrastructure mode (Point to Point/Point to Multipoint with Access Point).
WL-U351 provides with an internal patch antenna, and thus making its size more compact. Regarding the platform compatibility, WL-U351 supports most popular operating systems including Windows 98, Me, 2000 and XP. Plus 64-bit and 128-bit WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) Encryption feature, WL-U351 offers a reliable and private wireless network connection. Its data rate support 11, 5.5, 2 and 1Mbps. With its auto-fallback function, the data rate can be move to lower speed if signal quality is not good enough.
The WL-U351 provides full mobility and seamless roaming feature for mobile users to keep network connection across access points. Its range of coverage is up to 300 feet indoor and 800 feet outdoor.
