Anaheim, CA – As more and more business and home communications become wireless, the demand for bandwidth-intensive data transfer increases as well. The question is how to incorporate greater speeds and longer range when setting up a home or business network. OrangeWare, Inc. has developed a solution to bridge this gap by introducing a software driver for Mac OSX that will support the latest draft of the 802.11g specification. This new specification combines the range of 802.11b with the potential transfer speeds of more expensive 802.11a networking equipment. Now Mac users will be able to share files, an Internet connection, or just play games at speeds up to 54 Megabits per second, all without wires. This new software will allow for interoperability with previously established 802.11b wireless networks reducing future upgrade costs as well. The initiative to develop such a driver was spurred from an absence of 802.11g support for third party vendors on Apple computers. Now Mac users can enjoy the advanced technology of up to 54 Mbps from multiple wireless hardware vendors. This software will open the Apple marketplace to manufacturers of 802.11g products providing for a virtually untapped source of revenue.
