Product Description
From the Manufacturer
The SMC2671W is a wireless 2.4 GHz Ethernet adapter that delivers unparalleled plug-and-play simplicity. This platform-independent adapter requires no drivers, so there's no software to install. Just install it into your Ethernet device and your Ethernet device becomes wireless. The SMC2671W's plug-and-play simplicity makes it ideal for connecting not only computers, but also a broad array of home-entertainment electronics including gaming consoles like Microsoft's Xbox and Sony's PlayStation 2, set-top boxes, PVRs, stereos, and more. The SMC2671W can communicate in Ad-Hoc mode (point-to-point) with another 802.11b wireless client or be used with an Access Point (Infrastructure Mode) for communication with the wired network. Where security is an issue, advanced setup using an easy-to-use configuration utility - either via a Web browser or Windows PC - lets users configure 64-/128-bit WEP encryption, Wi-Fi Protected Access, and MAC address filtering, as well as disable SSID broadcast. To maximize performance, the SMC2671W supports auto-fallback at 11, 5.5, 2, and 1 Mbps, so that connections hold in noisy environments or across a larger wireless operating range.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Functional, but deeply flawed,
By Walter Coole "Sea Rover" (Petaluma, CA United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: SMC Networks SMC2671W EZ Connect Wireless Ethernet Adapter (Personal Computers)
Despite the description in the owner's manual and a long session with tech support, it cannot be configured for DHCP through the web interface. Difficult to impossible to re-configure without resetting with a paper clip AND use of the Windows utility. Don't be misled by the "no drivers" claim. If you don't have access to a Windows PC with an Ethernet card, you'll be disappointed. The Linksys WGA11B is smaller, cheaper, and easier to configure.
