54g delivers the fastest possible data rate defined by the proposed IEEE802.11g draft specification. 54g is five (5) times faster than 802.11b Wireless LANs and offers longer distances than 802.11a, requiring fewer access points and reducing deployment costs.
Review from ZDNET UK
PROS
Faster wireless networking; range of built-in services; good wired networking connections.
CONS
Based on draft 802.11g standard; Needs external Ethernet gateway to work with DSL lines.
VERDICT
For cable modem users at least, the WBR-G54 will allow wired and wireless PCs to connect to the Internet with some degree of protection. Although it may need updating once the 802.11g standard is ratified, it's still fast for wireless.
Review 24 January 2003
If you want wireless networking, but think 11Mbps isn't enough for you, read on. Buffalo Technology is one of the first manufacturers to produce faster wireless networking equipment based on the new 802.11g standard. Although this won't make your Internet browsing faster, as this depends on the speed of your connection, it does make the streaming of video or multiple audio tracks possible without needing wires.
