Greenguy's Board - View Single Post - Anyone set up a Wireless G Network for the Home Computers, and do you like it?

The speed is decent. If you use WEP encoding or other security features, outsiders will not be able to access your network without a password / code key.

I have two wireless units in the house (3rd floor and 1st floor) and I wander around using my laptop where ever I want including on the patio in summer (and even the park across the street if I want).

Also, important to note that it is better to get a card like this for the PCs:

rather than using the USB adapters (speed issues).
