Share your Hotel's Broadband Internet Connection Wirelessly

Belkin's new Wireless G Travel Router, a pocket-sized device that lets you wirelessly share your hotel's wired or wireless broadband access is now available. This handy device gives you wireless freedom and flexibility, when traveling. The Travel Router allows you to share a broadband Internet connection and files over multiple computers, so that you and your colleagues can be more productive -- whether in a hotel or a conference room. You can buy it for around $50 at almost any computer store, or at Best Buy.

The Travel Router, which is only about the size of your palm, features 802.11g technology, network security, and multifunctional capabilities. It offers a wide working range -- up to 300 feet -- and greater interoperability in mixed networking environments. 802.11g technology is backward-compatible with the 802.11b Wi-Fi networking standard.

This little jewel can also be used as a wireless adapter or an access point. As an adapter, it adds wireless capabilities to a computer so you can use it to connect to Wi-Fi hotspots. In access point mode, the Travel Router expands the coverage area of an existing network.
