Buffalo AirStation WLI2-PCI-G54S - Network adapter - PCI - 802.11b, 802.11gThe AirStation WLI2-PCI-G54S 125 High Speed Mode Wireless Desktop PCI Adapter offers a fast and flexible wireless solution for your desktop PC. With Buffalo s exclusive AirStation One-Touch Secure System (AOSS), creating a secure wireless connection is now hassle-free. The low profile design of the wireless PCI adapter can accommodate desktops with either full size or low profile PCI slots. The 125 High Speed Mode Wireless Desktop PCI Adapter adheres to the IEEE 802.11g standard and is interoperable with any 802.11b device. Using the included antenna connector, the detachable antenna can be replaced with a 2.4 GHz antenna for flexible placement or extended range.
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.

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.
