    CNET Review

    October 1, 2004

    The Good: Small and light; inexpensive; dual access point/adapter functionality; tiny AC adapter.

    The Bad: Supports 802.11b only; lacks WPA encryption; requires router for multiple clients; lacks password protection.

    The Bottom Line: Small and light, the Asus WL-330 is inexpensive and can create a wireless network anywhere there's a broadband connection, but the device has disappointing range and weak security.
