Introduction
Wireless LAN is one of the biggest things these days when it comes to home and office neworks. It saves alot of space and trouble when installing a network wherever it is. The problem is that it’s quite expensive but X-Micro has found a smart way to combine a Wifi finder and a USB Wifi card. This is a smart little device that can find wireless networks and also work as a USB wifi card, could it get any better? The big question is though how well does this work, and that’s what we are here to find out today.

This prodcut is quite small, not much bigger than a cigarette lighter. It came packed in a see through plastic cover with the X-Micro logo printed on the side of ot. On the back as usual you can read about the unit in different languages, I have to compliment X-Micro for this as they really see to that they have instructions in all these difference languages.

Inside the package you will have a manual, cd with drivers, and the unit itself. I don’t think that the unit really needs a manual as it’s quite logical how it works. The unit itself has a grey casing and a big chrome colored button in the middle of it. The bottom and top are equipped with different leds which we will talk more about on the next page.
