Intel® PRO/Wireless 2011 LAN Access Point

Product Description

Functioning as a wireless hub, the Intel PRO/Wireless 2011 LAN Access Point serves as a bridge between an existing wired network and wireless devices. In addition, the access point can act as a repeater, passing along transmissions from one access point to another, creating a wireless backbone and connecting hard-to-reach areas. Intel wireless access points are simple to install, since they ship with a site survey tool to assist in proper placement for desired coverage and performance. IT administrators can manage and monitor the network of access points remotely via standard web browser.Up to 11Mbps throughput provides reliable access to email, Internet, file sharing and other network resources. The Intel PRO/Wireless 2011 LAN Access Point always seeks to connect at 11Mbps and then switches to 5.5, 2 or 1, as network traffic demands, for increased signal range - up to 500 meters, for broad roaming capabilities. Dynamic rate scaling, IP mobile functionality and advanced transmit/receive technology allow multiple Intel PRO/Wireless 2011 LAN Access Points to serve users on the go. The Access Points automatically adjust connection speeds according to traffic demands, assuring mobile workers and students optimal performance with reliable network access. Omnidirectional (360 degrees) and directional (20-90 degrees) signal control allows Intel PRO/Wireless 2011 LAN Access Points to be configured for specific power and wiring requirements. In some locations - conference rooms, temporary classrooms, or information kiosks, for example - network access may be desirable, but network wiring is impractical. Intel PRO/Wireless Access Points can be strategically located, out of the way, to provide LAN access while avoiding the time and expense of wiring.

Easy to set up.......2003-04-14

By comparison with the experience I had with a similar product by Linksys, this baby was up and running in no time. I set it up in a Windows XP machine and then in a Windows 98SE machine, and both times it was a breeze to get up and running. One piece of advice (I learned it the hard way): don't expect this technology to go be able to go through metal doors. It just will not happen. Other than that, in a more "normal" setting, it should perform just fine.

Awesome!.......2003-03-07

This thing literally worked right out of the box with an SMC PCMCIA NIC. I typed in the AP's address and started configuring. I turned one feature on at a time until I had 128 bit WEP and access control working. The only thing that gave me any trouble is that the web interface requires "0x" before the hex for the WEP string and the NIC won't accept it. Not a big deal for me, but I can see why the guy in the store warned me that people return SMC stuff a lot because they can't figure out how to set it up.

BTW, I also have an SMC router that has worked flawlessly since I bought it.

Not great........2003-02-16

This product really doesn't perform as well as I had expected.
Limited range and functionality. We're disappointed.

Good quality, possibly difficult setup.......2003-02-13

I am using this access point with the SMC7004ABR router and the access point has never been a problem. I used the AP straight out of the box without upgrading the firmware and I've never had to reset it or change any settings for the 6 months I've been running it. I've also got MAC filtering and WEP working.

The one place where newbies could have problems is in setup. I had read some other reviews that suggested changing the IP addresses of my router to use the range the AP was expecting. I did that and things worked right away. I might have been able to configure the AP to look for a different IP address but I didn't try that.

One thing to consider is that this version of the hardware can only be configured via Windows software. The newer version has a web interface that isn't tied to Microsoft products. Ultimately, the price and the really good reviews for the product led me to buy it anyway. Also, I have only really used the software once when I set the thing up.

One more general note that might explain all the reviewers power-cycling the AP - the wireless client that comes with Windows XP is somewhat buggy and junky. Some of the WEP setup in the client is non-standard. Also, it seems to not reauthenticate itself at various times. For a while, I was working around the problems by disabling and re-enabling my wireless adapter. Then my company switched to the Odyssey wireless client because of this issue. This fixed all the problems, both at home and at work.

Serious pain to configure, works fine once it's running.......2002-10-24

I'm a professional system administrator and ordered this AP when it's price dropped too low to pass up.

The good:
AP has a very small footprint, mounting holes in back
Excellent range & strength; covers my duplex with excellent strength & quality
Simple to configure MAC address filter & WEP keys once you can connect to it

The bad:
I'm not entirely sure how a non-technical user would ever set this AP up. The documentation indicates that it's "plug & play", and indeed it is as long as you don't want to change _anything_. The firmware shipped with the AP would not work. The latest on the web site would not work. Finally, the 1.7.1 version (earlier version on the website) worked. In order to make it work I had to watch my DHCP server logs (the manual indicates that it ships with a static 192.168.0.254 address; in fact mine shipped with it's DHCP client on. Scanning for the AP has yet to work for me, but if I connect to it's DHCP assigned address with the default password I was finally able to get in.

Once in, configuration was a breeze, and as I said the AP has been working just fine since then.

Recommend SMC. .......2006-11-21

sometimes we have to ask ourselves -- is the consumer equipment we buy designed to be run 24/7 weeks on end? My SMC router worked quite well for about 2 yrs. It was mostly used in wired setting and as a consumer unit it worked fine.

After it failed, tech support was patient to troubleshoot the problem. After numerous resetting and troubleshooting -- my unit was replaced.

The lifetime warranty is amazing, generous and should be one of the reasons people should seriously consider SMC. Currently the warranty has been changed for the 'life of the unit' but still it's amazing that there are companies out there such as SMC that stand behind their products like that. When possible, I try to buy SMC.

On practice side -- online setup menu very well designed, ergonomics of the unit, wireless range and power of the signal -- all great. Network Printer port, unlike what I've seen in competing router models -- my SMC built in printer worked like a charm on every PC, even one running Win 98.

SMC doesn't produce millions of models as competition -- but those it does - are quite good and solid.

A steady performer for many years.......2005-11-18

While my folks have gone through 3 or 4 routers; this one SMC barricade has served me since 2001 with no complaints.

It is now starting to stop working every so often, so I have to reboot (pull the plug and plug it back in) so I am ready to upgrade.

Signal strength has been great - I can get signal from the far corner of my basement without a problem, anywhere inside the house, and outside as well.

Scam Warrenty, Zero Tech Support.......2004-05-22

SMC's "Lifetime Warrenty" is good for the "Lifetime of the Product", which means that when your product stops working after 1 year (like mine did) they won't fix it. And that's only after you try for days and days to get through to tech support. If you call and they're "busy" you don't even wait on hold, they say "call us back later". And of course, when you call back later, they're still busy. I went through this cycle for days and days until I finally got through and was told my warrenty was worthless.

Buy this product at your own peril.

Scam Warrenty, Zero Tech Support.......2004-05-22

Buy this product at your own peril.

Good but not great.......2004-03-12

Had this for more than a year with 4 wireless clients (2 SMCs, 1 Netgear, and 1 Dell TrueMobile). Easy set up (Web interface is decent), great value for the low price I paid (after rebate). I don't use the print server so I can't comment.

The only gripe I had is this thing does require occassional resets. I have it connected to a DSL router and this Ethernet interface occasionally get disconnected and the only way to bring it back is to reset the Barricade. The wireless interface stays up, however, so I can reset it via the Web interface and don't have to walk to the Barricade.

Like Something "Q" would give James Bond .......2004-09-06

Okay, maybe not James Bond-cool, but very cool nonetheless. I bought this incredibly compact wireless access point to address an inconvenience that left me stirred (though not shaken): Accessing high speed internet at most hotels tied me to the desk when I prefer to sit in bed or move around. I missed the wireless mobility I take for granted at my home and office. The WL-330 really is as small as a deck of playing cards, though lighter in weight than the deck. Now, I can plug the WL-330 into the high speed connection on the desk and enjoy the same mobility I'm used to, via a secure connection. But that's not all. I can also share a single high speed connection with colleagues (in a conference room or other place where only a single network cable is available). An enterprising soul might even be able to re-sell access at the Starbucks and make a profit!

Want more coolness? The WL-330 access point can be powered by the supplied tiny A/C power supply or with a supplied USB cable. USB power means you can create a wireless network "cloud" anywhere, even on an airplane. Imagine playing a game head-to-head at 30,000 feet, first class versus coach. I suppose you could even find a collaborative business purpose, too.

But, that's still not all. This gagdget is also a signal repeater for wireless networks so, when I'm in, say, New York, and I can latch onto a free connection at the hotel windowsill but not elsewhere, now I can amplify that weak signal and save on hotel high speed access charges. And if none of this is enough, the WL-330 functions as a USB wireless network interface, allowing anyone with a USB port to access any available wireless network.

To its credit, the manufacturer, ASUS, not only supplies all cables and good documentation, they also furnish a nifty little travel case custom fitted for the device, power supply and cables. I was impressed that they even furnished a diagram detailing how to pack the travel case. Now, that's attention to detail! I just wish my computer case came with similar instructions so I'd know what all those pockets and loops were designed to hold.

Bottom line: It works. It's perfectly portable. It's reasonably priced. It's even available in an 802.11G version for a few bucks more, but the 802.11B version (WL-330) does more of the slicing and dicing I describe above, for less.

This is my first digital camera.

I purchased a 512 MB chip and was able to transfer the images to my computer with ease.

I bought this camera due to the great reveiws on Amazon. This is my first digital camera. I've been very impressed with the shots it takes, and with the ease it is to operate it. The on-screen guide is very helpful, especially since I consider myself "low-tech". So, really, "my" 5 stars goes to both the camera, and all those who reviewed it before the end of 2006.

The reason I purchased this camera is that I already owned an HP R707 camera. The On/Off switch broke on the R707 and that left me with a lot of useless accessories. It was cheaper to purchase the R717 at Amazon than to have HP repair the R707. The pictures have been good so far, however I keep looking for the On/Off switch to break on this camera. If that happens I will buy something else.
