A few months ago, we learned that Buffalo’s WiFi adapter (SGH54P) could give us a 210 percent of wirless signal gain for our computer, which the range could reach up to 170m. And now they’ve just released two new much higher gain adapters. They are the Wireless-G High Gain USB 2.0 adapters, the WLI-U2-SG54HG and WLI-U2-G54HG. High gain adapters must come with special attenna. For these two Buffalo’s new products, the SG54HG uses an omni-directional antenna for optimal connection and range. The attena comes with suction cups, which is similar to the older SGH54P that you can attach it to your laptop/dsktop to keep it secured. The G54HG uses a directional antenna, where there is a signal strength indicator to allow you to tune for ideal performance. The G54HG is pretty compact, which measures at 2.8″ x 3.5″ and weighs 0.2 pounds, which it doesn’t add on any significant weight to your laptop, so you can freely carry it around with you. Other than this, these two attenas will give a Wireless-G signal reach up to a range of 1,600 feet, about 480m, which is almost 3 times higher than the one we’ve seen before. Both adapters are taking power via your USB port, which means you don’t need any external power adapters. Availability on both models is set for May at a price of $49.
