Dual-Band Wireless A+G

Broadband Router

An Internet-Sharing Router and Switch, with
Universal Wireless Access (A, B, and G)
T he Dual-Band Wireless A+G Broadband Router is like four devices in one
box! The Router function lets you securely share one high-speed
Internet connection among your entire network, while the 4-port full
duplex 10/100 Switch jump-starts your wired-Ethernet network. Connect
four PCs directly, or daisy-chain out to more hubs and switches to create as
big a network as you need.
The Dual-Band Wireless A+G Broadband Router also contains two Wireless
Access Points, supporting all three wireless networking specifications. The
first Access Point uses the 2.4GHz radio band, supporting both the popular
and inexpensive Wireless-B (802.11b) standard at 11Mbps, and the new,
almost five times faster, Wireless-G (draft 802.11g) at 54Mbps. The second
Access Point radio operates in the 5GHz band, and supports Wireless-A
(802.11a) networking, also at 54Mbps. Since the two radios operate in dif-
ferent bands, they can work simultaneously, blanketing your wireless zone
with bandwidth.
To protect your data and privacy, the Dual-Band Wireless A+G Broadband
Router can encrypt all wireless transmissions. The MAC Address filter lets
you decide exactly who has access to your wireless network. The Router also
serves as a DHCP Server, protects your PC from most known Internet attacks
with a powerful Stateful Packet Inspection firewall, has DMZ capability, sup-
ports VPN pass-through, and can be configured to filter internal users'
access to the Internet. Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based
configuration utility.
With the Linksys Dual-Band Wireless A+G Broadband Router at the center of
your home or office network, you can share a high-speed Internet connec-
tion, files, printers, and multi-player games with the flexibility, speed, and
security you need!
