Belkin Wireless Ethernet Bridge
Today we have a nice looking Belkin product on our test bench. They sent us a sample of their Wireless ehternet bridge.
You can connect any of your computers to this and have wireless LAN on it. For example you can have this mounted and ready to go in the kitchen
and all you have to do is to connect your laptop or second computer to this and you will have it ready to roll on the network right away and wireless on top of it.

As always Belkins packages are very informative and protect the products very well. On the front we have a picture of the ethernet bridge and on the back we have specifications and features
it holds. Inside everything was packed into their own compartments and all the cables in separate bags.

Manuals are included in several languages and a cd with drivers for win98. We also have some cables included as the power adapter and the
Cat5 network cable.

The ethernet bridge is very small as it's almost half the size of a normal router. The color scheme is very nice as it comes in silver/grey and black.
In the front we have the status leds which tells if you are connected to the LAN and if you also the WLAN is working.
