The Wireless-G Game Adapter gives any wired Ethernet-equipped game console wireless connection capabilities. The Game Adapter can be used in two different ways. If you have an existing home wireless network and a cable or DSL Internet connection, the Game Adapter lets your PlayStation 2, Xbox or GameCube attach to the network so you can get into online games without running wires to the game room. Or, use a pair of Game Adapters to form a cable-less cable between two game consoles for head-to-head gaming - in the same room, or all the way across the house. ??It's completely driver-free, so it works on any platform. Since there are no drivers to load, setup is a snap. In some cases, it works right out of the box! If your setup's a little different - just configure the network settings through your PC's web browser, plug it into your game box, and go. ??The Wireless-G Game Adapter provides lag-free gaming with communication speeds up to 54Mbps when connected to other Wireless-G dev...

Pros ease of use, portable, convenient, supports both 802.11b/g formats
Cons price, tough to use with non-Linksys equipment
Recommended it? Yes

**I accidently put my original review on the wrong product, so if you're seeing this again, that explains why.**

I never really wanted to switch to wireless internet access in the house. I always felt that doing that would add a needless bottleneck in my internet connection. I pay to get... Read full review »

Pros It can be returned.
Cons Poor design, worse customer support.
Recommended it? No

Wow! What can I say about this product?

History:
I've been using Linksys products since 1998, and have had nothing but great experiences. I've referred many folks to spend the extra money on a Linksys, as it was the "Cadallic of home networking gear." To my shock and surprise, I can... Read full review »

Infant product.....if you can make it work it works very well

11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros DUAL BAND N standard support, no drivers, works on any gaming system and pcs
Cons Infant product, needs lots of work yet, few firmware updates.
Recommended it? No

The picture epinions has for this gadget is incorrect. It's also classified as a "gaming adapter." Linksys aims this product at gaming systems such as the xbox, xbox360, wii, ps3 etc., but in truth this is a very diverse little toy that not only works on gaming systems you can use this for many...

one to avoid

9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros technical support is actually very technical
Cons did not work as advertised; did not support WPA in my case
Recommended it? No

My experience with this product was very negative. It was difficult to work with and understand out of the box. The instructions were simple, but the simple case did not work correctly on my Vista machine. I had to go into the CD and find the "advanced" section of the setup document and work...
