DWL-G650M User's Manual Introduction Introduction The D-Link DWL-G650M Super GTM Smart Antenna Wireless Notebook Adapter is an 802.11g high-performance, wireless adapter that brings wireless networking to your laptop or desktop PC. With a maximum wireless signal rate of up to 108Mbps, you can connect to a wireless network at home, at the office or at any wireless hotspot. Now you can stay connected wherever you are and wherever you go. The DWL-G650M is Wi-Fi compatible, meaning that it can connect and interoperate with other 802.11b and 802.11g Wi-Fi-compliant wireless routers, access points and adapters. The DWL-G650M connects to any available Cardbus slot on a laptop Windows -based computer. A laptop computer with a DWL-G650M can be positioned virtually anywhere at a workstation to achieve the best available wireless signal reception whether that workstation is in your office, on your deck or patio, by the pool, at the local coffee shop, or in an airport terminal while waiting to board your next flight. The adapter works with Microsoft Windows XP/2000 operating systems to ensure that you'll be up and running on a wireless network in just a matter of seconds. The DWL-G650M provides an increased level of security with WPA-PSK. WPA-Personal is directed at home users who do not have the server based equipment required for user authentication. The method of authentication is similar to WEP because you define a "Pre-Shared Key" on the wireless router/AP. Once the pre-shared key is confirmed and satisfied on both the client and access point, then access is granted. the encryption method used is referred to as the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), which offers per-packet dynamic hashing. It also includes an integrity checking feature which ensures that the packets were not tampered with during wireless transmission. *Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and evironmental factors lower actual data throughput rate. D-Link Systems, Inc. 4
