Product Description
Buffalo AirStation G54 Wireless PC Card Network Adapter - This network adapter supports 802.11g and 802.11b wireless networks. Allowing a notebook computer to wirelessly access the Internet, e-mail, transfer files and more! It also features Buffalo's latest wireless technologies: AOSS and 125 High Speed Mode. AOSS stands for AirStation OneTouch Secure System. It literally secures your system with the touch of a button (optional AOSS router required). 125 High Speed Mode boosts transfer rates to levels that are equivalent to 802.11g networks running at 125Mbps!!
Amazon.com Product Description
The WLI-CB-G54S AirStation 125 High Speed Mode Wireless Notebook Adapter offers a fast and flexible client solution for your notebook PC. It also features Buffalo's exclusive AirStation One-Touch Secure System (AOSS) techonology, which enables you to easily setup secure wireless connections to an AOSS-enabled Router. The 32-Bit cardbus technology and 54 Mbps wireless data rates ensure maximum performance. It fits any Notebook PC with an available Type II or Type III PC card slot.
When operating in High Speed Mode, this AirStation achieves an actual throughput of up to 34.1 Mbps, which is the equivalent throughput of a system following 802.11g protocol and operating at a signaling rate of 125Mbps.
What Is AOSS? Setting up a secure wireless network can be too complicated, involving many tedious steps and requiring a certain level of expertise to complete. BuffaloÕs AirStation OneTouch Secure System (AOSS) allows you to create a hi-speed secure wireless connection with a push of a button and a click of the mouse. AOSS automatically detects and configures other AOSS enabled wireless devices and clients and seamlessly creates secure connections. As you add additional devices, security is negotiated at the highest level possible for all devices on the network. Say, for example, that you have one AOSS client that supports both WEP and WPA level encryption, while another client that supports only WEP. The AirStation automatically adjusts the security level to one that both clients will support.
What's in the Box
This package contains the AirStation 125 High Speed Mode Wireless Notebook Adapter, CD-ROM with drivers and manual, and printed Quick Setup Guide. It's backed by 24/7 toll-free tech support and a 2-year warranty.
Tech Talk
- AES: The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the U.S. government's next-generation cryptography algorithm, phasing out the older DES format.
- TKIP: The next generation of WEP, the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP, pronounced tee-kip) provides per-packet key mixing, a message integrity check and a re-keying mechanism to secure 802.11 wireless LANs.
- WEP: A data encryption method used to protect transmission between 802.11 clients and access points, the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) standard is now considered insufficient, with WPA encryption a more secure choice.
- WPA: Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) improves the security of 802.11 networks, using 802.1x and EAP to restrict network access and its own encryption (TKIP) to secure data during transmission.

easy to setup, but range lacking.......2007-06-08
works great at school, but at home barely keeps a connection in my room which is upstairs on the other side of the house from the router. Now, my Apple macbook gets a very low signal as well in my room, but, it is fairly reliable and keeps the connection most of the time. I should mention that I am using the Buffalo router WHR-G54S, which goes along with this adapter card. The range is lacking though in comparison to the Apple Airport.
Dissapointment.......2006-03-01
Not what I hoped for. I already have built in wireless and I was using this as a connector for a canteena. When I made an atempt to use the adapter without the canteena it gave very poor performance.
If you have wireless and want to make it stronger, this is not the product for you. If you need this for use with another wireless booster. I would go for it but only after you check out other deals. I don't think the canteena websites recomend this product for it's performance.
Range booster my !@$#!.......2005-12-18
I bought this to extend the range of my laptop's built-in wifi adapter. I was very upset after the installation, but lemme tell you all step by step.
Installation is very easy under windows XP: pop it in and when prompted insert the cd with drivers. CAUTION: if your laptop has a built-in wifi adapter you will have to disable it first - trust me, it will save you plenty of stress. Two adapters cannot work together for some reason. Disabling one is very easy, and re-enabling it is just the reverse process (control panel - system - hardware - device manager - right click device and choose disable / or enable].
OK, now comes the dissapointing part : the only thing this card will boost is your stress level! Range is MUCH WORSE than that of my built in wifi adapter, and I mean MUCH WORSE. It hardly registers my network at all, and cannot detect any of the neighborhood networks. However, that's where the external antenna jack comes in handy. I purchased a 12dbi cantenna (the Pringles-type can with a special coax cable) - it was commercially produced and set me back by $40. After pointing it in the right direction (cantenna is directional) I can now reach very good signal on this card and am for the most part satisfied. I'm usually connected at 48-54 and at a signal strength at "good". As an example:
My built-in wifi adapter generally connects at 36-48 MBps and "good" signal, detecting additional 7 - 9 networks in the vicinity..
The Buffalo card (without cantenna) connected at 5.5 MBps at the most and signal strength "very low", detecting only my own network and not working in the backyard at all. After installing the cantenna, speed is 48 - 54, signal good or very good, working outside without signal loss. However, detecting neighborhood networks requires reposition of the cantenna to find them (I may look for an omni-direction antenna to simplify the process).
To summarize: Good product, but only when paired with an antenna. Forget about it without one. When used with a cantenna, can be used for wardriving.

Really just a toy - recommend the Orion Starblast instead........2004-04-27
Without the ability to aim the telescope and a decent mounting it is hard (and very frustrating for a kid) to find anything in the night sky. Orion makes a much better product called the Starblast, albeit about twice the price in the FunScope. In contrast to the FunScope, the Starblast gathers more light, has a useful robust mount and includes two eyepieces (x26 and x75). These can be expanded using a x2 Barlow if required. The Starblast also includes a red-dot finder to make it easy to aim the scope. My ten-year old is able to find objects such as Orion's Nebula and faint galaxies two-million light years away (Messier objects 81 & 82) without difficulty. The only caveat with the Starblast is that it is a reflecting scope and does not invert the image to the right way up - thus making it not so useful for terrestrial viewing.
Good Kid's Scope.......2004-01-27
I gave this telescope with the optional 50x eyepiece to my 10 year old neice for Christmas. We took it outside that night and were all thrilled when her dad announced, "Hey, that looks like Saturn!" All the kids came running over and knocked the telescope off kilter. Fifteen minutes later, we had Saturn spotted again and everyone got a look. Sure, it wasn't like the cover of National Geographic, but you could distinctly make out a large, fuzzy blob with a ring around it. Not bad for a kid's scope used in a typical, light-polluted neighborhood. The software that comes with the telescope looked good too.
Good for children........2003-12-29
I bought this telescope for my 7 year old daughter as a starter. It is small, easy to handle, and seems to be durable. The eyepiece is easy to focus. The only downside is trying to aim it. Overall I am pleased. I would recommend buying the 50x eyepiece (around $10).

Customer Reviews:
great starter tablet!.......2007-03-11
This is my first go at a graphics tablet. Got it to use with my new MacBook to use with LineForm and as an external mouse. I have used it on one graphics project so far, and really like it. It does take a bit of getting used to (you don't have to drag and then reposition like you do with a mouse--pretend the tablet is your screen), but is so much better for drawing and tracing than a mouse (or a trackpad, especially) It is TINY, though...like coffee coaster sized. So keep that in mind. This is great for me because that's what I'm looking for, though. Not to mention that the price is much lower than anything else vaguely comparable. I do like that it has a little light - red when the tablet isnt picking up the pen, green when it is but you're hovering, and orange when it's drawing/clicking. No problems yet!
Smaller is better........2007-01-27
This tablet is great for working on the go. It doesn't take up much space and is large enough to do professional touch work in Photoshop.
Needed a PC compliant product.......2007-01-24
This product is a MAC product and the description wasn't clear about it.
Macally USB Digitizer with Pressure Sensitive Pen - ICECAD.......2007-01-18
Bought this for our daughter for Christmas. She loves it. It works great just like the other expensive kind. Downloading the drivers for it so it can work with Windows XP was real easy too. Highly recommend this tablet for all ages.
Be careful with loading Mac Software.......2006-11-07
I loaded the included OSX software and put my normally iron clad Power Mac on it's knees. Do not load the software!
Product Description
The high performance ORiNOCO AP-2000 extends the range of your cabled Ethernet network, providing easy network access for mobile users and in difficult to wire locations. Web-enabled and SNMP network management options make it easy to embed the AP-2000 in your comprehensive network management system, with the added freedom of remote management.Investing in the AP-2000 is an investment for the long term: you can easily migrate from 2.4 GHz to 5 GHz using the AP-2000 5GHz Kit. Your investment is further protected with the addition of the AP-2000 11g Kit, which provides an intuitive migration to the new, higher data rate radio standard. In addition, by using two ORiNOCO Network Interface Cards operating on different frequency channels, you can double your network capacity.The AP-2000 utilizes the IEEE 802.1x security standard. It authenticates the client, distributes the WEP key automatically, and frequently changes the key, greatly reducing the risk of interception. With support for a wireless-to-wireless bridging feature for large open areas, such as warehouses and retail stores, the AP-2000 enables you to expand your network without adding to your wired backbone.
