Ultra Equipped
Built in to this firewall router is a 4-port 10/100 switch, an IEEE 802.11g wireless 2.4 GHz 54 Mbps access point, and an easy connection USB print server port that supports multiple print jobs simultaneously. An RS-232 serial port provides for either an ISDN/analog modem fail-over backup or dial-up connections, and a 100 Mbps WAN port allows for future high-speed broadband services. Seventeen LEDs display status at a glance. Supports single remote access server (RAS) client via the serial port*.
Safeguarded
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) shields wireless communications with the highest available level of industry-standard encryption, blocking unwanted users from accessing the network without the proper permission and password. True firewall using Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI), Network Address Translation (NAT) and Intrusion Control capabilities provides defense against Denial of Service (DoS) hacker attacks, while 40/64 and 128 -bit WEP encryption protects the network from wireless eavesdroppers. Virtual Private Network (VPN) pass-through enables secure access to your office or corporate network. Web page URL content filtering provides administrative control over access to inappropriate web sites. Provides logging and reporting alerts of Internet activity.
Helpful
Smart Wizard automatically detects the ISP connection type, saving time and reducing setup errors, and Install Assistant guides you through each step. Extensive functions include MAC Address cloning/spoofing, Import/Export router settings, Exposed Host (DMZ) support for unrestricted communication between the Internet and a specified device, advanced settings for additional control by experienced users, and secure remote management capability.
The USB 2.0 Advantage
USB 1.1 was great, but USB 2.0 transfers data dramatically faster - up to 40 times quicker. Plus, USB 2.0 provides additional bandwidth for multimedia and storage applications, which are growing larger every year. Also to your advantage is the fact that USB 2.0 is forward and backward compatible with USB 1.1, which means that cables and connectors made for the original USB configuration will also work perfectly in a USB 2.0 port.
