Linksys WiFi Finder/Adapter

You arrive at the airport just in time for boarding, only that an announcement is made that boarding the flight is to be delayed one hour or until there is a clearing of weather at your destination. So you go to the frequent flyer lounge and proceed to get out your laptop to get some work done.

Your laptop fires up only to find that the laptop cannot detect a wifi signal. You either proceed to do some work on non-networked stuff but then you want to connect so that emails will not be so huge when you arrive at your destination.

If you had the Linksys WiFi Finder/Adapter in your pocket you would not have gotten into this wifi mess. Without even undoing your laptop, you can click on the wifi finder and walk through the terminal looking for a hotspot. When you find a network you can settle in a lounge/chair right near the hotspot and pull out your laptop.

As soon as the laptop is fired up you click the Linksys WiFi Finder/Adapter into a USB port and you are connected automatically to the network you found.

Same deal anywhere you go. The finder can locate a hotspot without you having to even start your laptop. A great little gadget that makes life just that little easier. You can purchase this item for around US$75 or even less expensive through Amazon.
