The Linksys Wireless-G USB Adapter other than just works as a Wireless-G adapter for your laptop or PC to have Wi-Fi capability, it also serves as a Wi-Fi network finder. You can use it to detect availability of Wi-Fi network (both for Wireless-G and Wireless-B) without having to boot up your laptop. Which means it works similarly to the prototype Wi-Fi heart beat that we’ve seen before. So, when hunting for coffee shops for Wi-Fi hotspot, you can just take out this adapter from your pocket, push a button and take a look at its little LCD panel to find out if Wi-Fi is avaliable with that coffeeshop. Its LCD display shows you all the precise information such as the signal strength, the network ID, the channel used and also if security is enabled. You can also set it to look up for only open networks, all networks or a specific named network.
The prototyped Wi-Fi heart beat could be something that is reinventing the wheel. But, anyway the only difference is the Wi-Fi heart beat uses pulses strength to alert you, so you can just leave it inside your pocket and have your eyes reserved for looking around for pretty girls. Wheareas the Linksys Wireless-G USB Adapter, you need to read the signal info from its LCD panel. Which one you like? The choice is yours. If your eyes are simply too busy for others to read the signal info, then you’d better wait till the Wi-Fi heart beat materialized. Bear in mind, the Linksys Wireless-G USB Adapter is something that you must have if your laptop isn’t equiped with Wi-Fi adapter and it also tells you the signal info. It’s available at Amazon from $68.00
