If you’re looking to connect to wireless networks, but your current laptop wireless just isn’t doing the job, you should take a look at the Alfa AWUSO36NH. This USB adapter connects simply and easily to any available USB port. But the real story behind this wireless adapter is the high-powered 2000mW transmitter. When you combine it with an available 9 dBi omni-directional antenna, you can count on as much as triple the range that you are used to with an internal setup.

Because the Alfa AWUS036NH connects to your USB port, you don’t have to worry about an external power source. The unit is powered by the USB connection. It’s compatible with both the USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 standards.

The Alfa AWUS036NH is the most powerful wireless card you can purchase. Many of the newest laptops have relatively weak wireless cards. Perhaps manufacturers are counting on more widespread availability of wireless signals. However, road warriors often find themselves on the fringe of wireless range and nothing can be more frustrating than the inability to connect with a weak signal. This unit can banish those worries forever.

The “N” designation in the model number indicates compatibility with the latest wireless-N standard. Of course, the card is backwards compatible with earlier wireless standards as well. It’s great to know that you won’t need to replace this unit anytime soon as more access points upgrade to wireless-N.

If your wireless computing needs call for the widest compatibility combined with the greatest range, you should seriously consider the Alfa AWUSO36NH USB Wireless Adapter.

Wireless access is and will always be a part of the growing trend of internet technology. Imagine having to connect to the internet superhighway in your own home, at your school, your workplace, even while traveling around the subway.

Of course, with every technological device, there are pitfalls, and one of these pitfalls is the disconnection of your wireless access. In this article, we will discuss three common factors that can cause your wi-fi connection to drop unexpectedly.

Interference from Other Devices

Wireless access depends upon the transmission of a signal from the source to your wi-fi compatible device. When this signal is broken to and from your device, the connection is lost. This signal can be easily interrupted by intercepting signals such as a cordless phone, garage door openers, and microwave ovens. If this happens, try to relocate your router or your wifi device. You may also need to configure some wi-fi settings on your devices.

Hopping to Unsecured Wireless Networks

This is a common problem among apartment buildings with a lot of wi-fi networks. You may happen to connect to a neighbor’s unsecured wireless network (or the neighbor connects to your unsecured network). This can cause countless troubles from privacy issues to connectivity issues. The best solution to this is to secure your network, set the default wi-fi connection of your device to your network, and be a good neighbor by informing them of their unsecured networks.

Excessive Traffic

When using the wi-fi connection all alone without any competition, you will notice that you are zipping through the internet superhighway at top speed. But when other family members or friends are connecting, and most especially downloading media files, you will encounter increased traffic in your network. This is of course correctable with bandwidth limiters, although the best solution would be to schedule the time spent on the internet.

Enjoying a wireless internet connection on the back of your cable or DSL line creates an unparalleled level of convenience to online browsing. But, the technology is fallible. Your link to the web can drop without warning for a number of reasons. Fortunately, you’ll discover that most problems with your wireless access can be resolved easily.

A lot of people are having problems with using the Nintendo DSi WiFi feature. If you are one of them, then you are in good company, since a lot of people find it hard to connect for the first time.

You might be asking why it’s worth it to go through the jumble of technicalities just so you can connect to the Internet using your Nintendo DSi. The answer is simply so you can have the convenience of downloading games and apps directly through your device.

1st Make sure you have access to a high-speed wireless internet connection. Wired connections would not work since the Nintendo DSi does not have LAN connectivity. If you do not have a wifi network available, you can either buy a router and create one or head near the nearest wifi coffee shop in your locality.

2nd Turn on the DSi and choose System Settings from the main menu. This is where you will go to make certain configuration changes to your device. When you’re in the Systems Settings menu, click the button that says Wireless Communications. On the next screen, check to make sure the wireless feature is turned on. If it’s not, turn it on and tap ok.

3rd Scroll to the Internet button. Tap it. On the next screen you’ll see an option that says Connection Settings. Click Connection Settings.

4th Tap any connection that says None, then Search for an Access Point. The DSi will search for any nearby wireless networks. Your home network or the cafe’s network should appear on the list. Click the name of the network. If the network is security enabled, you’ll have to enter the password. Otherwise the system will connect without a password. The system will save your settings and ask you to perform a connection test. You should get a message that says the connection was successful

5th Enjoy downloading.

Should you have any problems connecting, you can contact or visit your local Nintendo dealership for technical support.

With the emerging trend of wireless communication, it would only be a matter of time before business owners decide to put up a wireless hotspot in their establishment.

There are plenty of advantages you can have if you host a wifi spot on your establishment. Customer satisfaction is one of the biggest advantages of having a wifi spot in your establishment.

But what do you need to consider before setting up a wifi access point. Firstly is the type of service you will have: Single Access Point OR Multiple Access Points.

The number of connection points you need is determined by the amount of area that you wish to make available for wireless internet access. For example larger hotels will require, on average, one access point per 20 rooms;  while a coffee shop can adequately service their clientele with just a single access point.

Secondly on whether to bill the customer for the service. Today, more and more enterprises are offering wireless internet access as a value-added service in an effort to attract more visitors to their hotels/shops. In today’s competitive environment, offering complimentary hot zones can be the determining factor when customers weigh your offering against that of your competitors.

Should you decide to bill your customers for using the access point, you should consider purchasing a program or hiring a provider that will enable you to charge credit cards right over your gateway (the page the users ‘see’ when they try to access the web using your hotspot).

There is also a question on whether to limit traffic on the users. Majority of users nowadays would use the internet not only for surfing or for emailing, but for downloading. This would certainly put a dent on the bandwidth of the internet service you are providing.

Of course, this is only the simplistic description of what you will need to offer wifi access to your establishment. A little research on the web and queries on your local internet service provider would help you establish your decision.

Wifi is now accepted as a standard in most establishments and so electronic devices are already being marketed as “wifi ready”. This is to ensure that both Internet service providers and device manufacturers are standardized.

Of course, there are devices that do not fit the standards and are not wi-fi ready. This is where you might want to consider purchasing and installing a wifi adapter into that old computer of yours.

These adapters look just like your ordinary thumb drive, the difference being it picks up wireless Internet signals and allows your computer to hook up to the Internet.

The things you will need for this are simply: Your computer, driver disk installation, and the USB wifi adaptor.

To enable the wifi in your computer, simply do these steps to install and set-up:

1st: Power on the computer and plug in the USB WiFi adapter into an available USB port.

2nd: Insert the driver installation disk into the CD driver. In a moment the driver installation wizard will launch. Without these drivers the adapter will not function properly.

3rd: Accept the license agreement and follow the remaining prompts to complete the driver installation. Once the installation has completed you will see a new icon in the lower right corner of your start up screen. It will be the image of a single computer monitor

4th: Double click the monitor icon to bring up the list of possible wireless connections available

5th: Select the wireless connection you wish to connect to. If a password is required you will be asked to type it here. In a moment the USB WiFi adapter will connect your computer to the Internet.

6th: Enjoy surfing.

Of course, you will need to be in an area with a wifi network operational to enjoy the benefits of surfing the internet superhighway.
