Product Description
Includes: USB cable and Setup CD-ROM. Connect your USB-equipped desktop or notebook computer to a wireless network at incredible speeds with the Linksys Wireless-G USB Network Adapter with SpeedBooster. Using your high-speed USB 2.0 port, the Adapter delivers incredible data rates without the trouble of opening up the case of your computer.
The Wireless-G USB Network Adapter with SpeedBooster incorporates the next generation of Wireless-G. In standard Wireless-G (802.11g) mode, the USB Adapter can connect to wireless networks at an amazing 54Mbps. With our new SpeedBooster technology enabled, your "real-world" wireless network performance increases by up to 35%! Unlike other speed-enhancing technologies, SpeedBooster is 802.11 compliant, fully compatible with standard Wireless-G, and a "good neighbor" to other wireless devices and technologies, using a single 2.4GHz channel as specified by the official wireless standard. And with SpeedBooster you'll see an overall speed improvement even when running a mixed network of SpeedBooster and regular Wireless-G devices.
To install, simply plug the Adapter into any available USB port. (It's compatible with both USB 1.1 and 2.0 ports, but 2.0 will yield the fastest speeds.) It gets its power through the USB connection, so no power cord is necessary. The included Setup Wizard walks you through configuring the Adapter to your wireless network settings, step by step. The Adapter is also compatible with the Wireless-B (802.11b) network standard, with data rates up to 11Mbps. And your wireless communications can be protected by 128-bit encryption, so your data stays secure.
The high-gain antenna lets you put your computer almost anywhere in the building, without the cost and hassle of running cables. Now you don't have to drill holes in your walls and climb through the attic or cellar to get connected to the network. Once you're connected, you can keep in touch

Lindsys USB Network Adapter - Happy Camper.......2007-09-05
Couldn't pick up signal from the Linksys WRT54GS router in an adjacent room through a doorway (not line - of - sight) with a Linksys PCI card in a desktop or a built-in laptop adaptor card. Purchased the Linksys WUSB54GS adaptor. Had to move it about to find a "sweet spot" and it's been working great ever since
Lynksys Wireless Adapter.......2007-09-03
The Linksys Wireless-G USB Network Adapter with Speedbooster was extremely easy to install and always maintains a strong wireless internet connection. I highly recommend it.
Works Great!.......2007-06-27
I use this with the Linksys router and I get a perfect signal from 160 feet away.
Reliable, easy to use........2007-05-30
When my attic office became too hot to tolerate for the summer, I needed a wireless solution that would allow me to temporarily move my computer to a cooler part of my house. My Linksys Wireless G USB Network Adapter allowed me to leave my modem and router in the attic, and connect to the Internet from any place in my home. And set-up was farily effortless, too. My one complaint is that my connection is lost when my computer suspends, but reconnection is easy and usually automatic. I didn't take too much of a hit with speed, which was my initial concern. The product's fairly inexpensive price meant good value for my money. And because it is an external device, I can move it easily from one computer to the next. Now, no matter the season, I can be connected and work efficiently.

Customer Reviews:
Buggy software.......2007-07-18
It does work better than my Dell built in adapter but the software that comes with it is buggy. It messed up Windows XP networking.
Difficult to get working.......2007-06-23
I have both the LinkSys USB54GSC and the corresponding GSC router.
Setting up the router was a pain that was only resolved by _removing_ the Linksys software and letting Windows XPSP2 handle the wireless connection (using the laptop's built-in "b" adapter).
I had also bought this, USB54GSC, adapter and gave it a try. I followed the instructions on the CD, and... it _changed_ the router's SSID and neither wireless adapter could connect! I'm a techie and have spent a couple hours this morning fiddling w/ this.
I had to connect again w/ my lan cable to change the SSID and get the passcode. Then I turned off the 54GSC Service (and set it to manual so it won't come back on) and turned back on Windows Wireless Service... and both adapters are working.
So, w/ both the router and now the adapter, I couldn't get the LinkSys software to work. For both products, there is a sticker that says to RUN THE CD FIRST. My experience has been to _not_ do this. Things are complicated enough and time is precious. These LinkSys products unnecessarily created more complication and wasted my time.
Good Product.recommended.......2007-06-03
I just bought this product because my built in wireless adapter was broken and I am too lazy to bring it to be repaired. easy to install and plug-and-play.
Works right out of the box.......2007-05-07
I bought this for my mother and it was the easiest thing to set up. I literally plugged it into her pc and it detected the networks automatically. She is using a secured network so I had to add a wep key but the connection manager is am extremely user friendly interface so it wasn't a problem at all.
Frustrating.......2007-04-06
When this product works, it works. However it will occasionally shut down and then the only way to reconnect is to shut down the whole computer. If you are in the middle of several things like working on photos, graphics and the internet, you have to shut down all those programs, restart the computer to get the internet to work and then pull up all your work again. Simply unplugging the adapter will not do it and there is no way to "repair" connection except shutting down the computer. I've had it with this adapter.

Product Description
Enjoy the convenience of one-touch scanning and USB installation with Microtek's SlimScan C6 USB scanner for Windows 98 and iMac. The SlimScan C6 USB flatbed scanner is less than two inches high, only 10.4 inches wide and weighs less than eight pounds. But a small package does not mean small performance. This 36-bit single pass scanner features Contact Image Sensor technology which allows direct contact between the image and the image sensor. This eliminates the need for a bulky mirror system, and results in sharper images, richer colors and a much slimmer device. And Microtek's Zero Reflection Design Technology blocks out any improper lighting to preserve the quality of the scan. The SlimScan C6 USB flatbed scanner features a one-button control for faxing, scanning, and copying. Just push the GO button on the front of the scanner to launch Microtek's ScanSuite software and begin the scan. Scan pages up to 8.5x11.7 inches in size with a 600x1200 dpi resolution (9600 dpi interpolated). Scan in 36-bit color or 12-bit grayscale for billions of colors and 4096 shades of gray.
Amazon.com Review
A great value, the Microtek SlimScan C6 is easy to use and comes with a large selection of software. Its relatively high resolution and multi-function capabilities make it a good choice for the home user.
Setting up the actual scanner was remarkably easy; figuring out how to use all the included software was a bit more difficult. The Microtek SlimScan C6 comes with a handy quick-start guide, but detailed documentation is only available in electronic form.
The Microtek SlimScan C6 comes with a great software installer that lets you load all the different software packages one after another. Once we had installed the software, photo scanning was simple--we pushed the single button on the scanner, and our computer automatically launched the scan program. Scanning and recognizing text was also easy; the optical character recognition (OCR) software was completely accurate for most documents we tried.
The Microtek SlimScan C6 also comes with a variety of image-editing and document-management software. Microtek's ScanWizard was particularly useful, since it let us enhance and edit images before we scanned them. It also has a great descreening feature that makes it possible to scan previously printed material without distorted Moire dot patterns.
In addition to performing well as a simple scanner--giving us relatively good picture quality and medium-to-high resolution (600 x 1200 dpi)--the Microtek SlimScan C6 also functions as a fax machine and can convert a color printer into a color copier. Its incredibly thin form makes it a good choice for those with limited desk space, although at 7.7 pounds it's still not quite a portable scanner.
Pros:
- Great selection of accompanying software
- One-touch scanning button
Cons:
- Insufficient printed documentation

A fine product, by a fine company........2000-04-04
After being quite content with my now-outdated Microtek E3 SCSI scanner, I decided to go Microtek again with the new slimscan USB. Although I would say that scans are slower than the older SCSI model, the overall quality is much better, and the interface is improved. As mentioned in other reviews, the OCR provided with the package is somewhat weak, but functional. I would recommend purchasing OmniPage Pro by Caere for higher-quality OCR recognition, although this may run you around a hundred dollars, last time I checked. The model is quite thin, although I too have had troubles making the button in the front, which is supposed to launch applications in Windows, functional. All in all a solid purchase at a solid value.

Good Quality Scanner.......2000-04-04
I format my HDD from time to time, but I never had any problem installing the scanner ...even using it. For the price, it is a bargain. Picture quality is good, and I even bought the the device on-line.
Not up to Microtek standards.......2000-01-13
I bought this scanner because of its low profile and "scan" button, and because my Microtek E3 was a great product. Unfortunately, hookup was a problem. Microtek seems to have written their code to require the very latest USB drivers from Intel, so unless you find the right support note on the Microtek web site (and the link to Intel's page) you will be very frustrated hooking this USB device up to your system. Even after a four-hour installation process, I still cannot get the button on the front of the scanner to function properly. The ScanWizard TWAIN driver is excellent, but don't bother installing the rest of the software. The OCR package is particularly poor. The only redeeming thing about this product is its price and it's low profile
Mine works great and the installations was a breeze!.......1999-12-30
I bought the SlimScan C6 in a store, not online, and I was very satisfied! I have the parallel port version. It was very easy to set up. Just plug you printer into your scanner then your scanner into your computer. That's it. The software was easy to. Just follow the on screen directions. Plus the software they gave was great! Overall I thought this product deserves all the stars it can get!
Requirements.......1999-12-26
The system requirements before this was ordered indicated the scanner could be used with Windows 95. Upon receiving the scanner as a gift(ordered thru Amazon) there are no instructions for loading to Windows 95. The outside of the box says Window 98 is a minimum requirement. The scanner seems like it would be a great product. I wish I could use it.
