Chapter 1: Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Wireless-G Game Adapter. With this Adapter, your wireless gaming experience will be 
faster and easier than ever.

How does the Game Adapter do this? Like all wireless products, the Game Adapter allows for greater range and 
mobility within your wireless network, whether it’s using the Wireless-G (802.11g), or Wireless-B (802.11b) 
standard. Using this Adapter, your game console has the flexibility to communicate using any of the two wireless 
networking standards.

But what does all of this mean?

Networks are useful tools for sharing computer resources. You can access one printer from different computers 
and access data located on another computer's hard drive. Networks are even used for playing multiplayer video 
games. This is exactly what the Game Adapter is designed for—gaming over a wireless network. So, networks 
are not only useful in homes and offices, they can also be fun.

PCs and game consoles equipped with wireless cards or adapters can communicate without cumbersome 
cables. By sharing the same wireless settings, within their transmission radius, they form a wireless network.

In most cases, you can use the “Fast Setup” chapter to quickly install the Game Adapter. If you need to configure 
the Game Adapter’s settings, run the included Setup Wizard, which will walk you through its configuration, step 
by step. Use the instructions in this Guide to help you connect and set up the Game Adapter for your 
PlayStation
