| The Bottom Line | The WAP54G offers a significant speed improvement, making it a good buy for offices looking to upgrade existing 802.11b networks. | This wireless bridge does a competent job at connecting Ethernet devices to a wireless network or extending a WLAN's range, but its price is high. | With its outstanding performance and compatibility with 802.11b gear, Netgear's WG602 delivers on the promise of the upcoming 802.11g standard. | The DWP-2100AP is the fastest Wi-Fi access point we've tested, but its convoluted setup guide and manual mean networking newbies need not apply. | The WAP54A gives small-business users excellent performance and top-notch security in an affordable and easy-to-configure package. But its warranty is just average. |
