The Hawking HWL2A is an advanced version of the HWL1 and improves on many functions of the previous model. The most obvious is the addition of a Hi-Speed Wireless-G USB 2.0 Network Adapter for Apple Users (Mac OS10 - 10.3) as well as the ability to differentiate wireless networks with security enabled. The addition of a WiFi Adapter allows the user to detect an 802.11b or 802.11g wireless signal and effortlessly connect to that signal by attaching their Apple laptop or desktop directly to the HWL2A via USB 2.0.
