FEATURES- Dual-Band Wireless-N Gigabit Router with Storage Link
Two radio bands for twice the bandwidth!
The Dual-Band Wireless-N Gigabit Router is really four devices in
one box. First, there's the dual-band Wireless Access Point, which
lets you connect to the network without wires. There's also a
built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100/1000 Switch to connect your
wired-Ethernet devices together at up to gigabit speeds. The Router
function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a
high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection.
We've also included a Storage Link that lets you easily add
gigabytes of storage space onto your network using readily
available USB 2.0 hard drives -- or plug in a USB flash disk for a
convenient way to access your portable data files. The built-in
Media Server streams music, video, and photos from the attached
storage device to any UPnP compatible media adapter. And you can
get to your files from anywhere in the world through the Internet.
The Access Point built into the Router uses a dual-band version of
the very latest wireless networking technology, Wireless-N (draft
802.11n). By overlaying the signals of multiple radios for each
band, Wireless-N's "Multiple In, Multiple Out" (MIMO) technology
multiplies the effective data rate. Unlike ordinary wireless
networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections,
MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the range and
reduce "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area. The robust
signals travel farther, maintaining wireless connections much
farther than standard Wireless-G.
With Wireless-N, the farther away you are, the more speed advantage
you get. It works great with standard Wireless-G, -A, and -B
equipment, but when both ends of the wireless link are Wireless-N,
the router can increase the throughput even more by using twice as
much radio band, yielding speeds much faster than standard
Wireless-G. But unlike other speed-enhanced technologies,
Wireless-N can dynamically enable this double-speed mode for
Wireless-N devices, while still connecting to other wireless
devices at their respective fastest speeds. In congested areas, the
"good neighbor" mode ensures that the Router checks for other
wireless devices in the area before gobbling up the radio band.
Since the Router can operate in both the 2.4 and 5 gigahertz radio
bands at the same time, it effectively doubles your available
wireless bandwidth. For instance, you could set up your network to
handle video streaming on one radio band, and use the other band
for simultaneous data transfers -- avoiding any interference or
collisions that would degrade the video performance.
To help protect your data and privacy, the Router can encode all
wireless transmissions with industrial-strength 256-bit encryption.
It can serve as your network's DHCP Server, has a powerful SPI
firewall to protect your PCs against intruders and most known
Internet attacks, and supports VPN pass-through. Configuration is a
snap with the web browser-based configuration utility.
The incredible speed of Wireless-N and gigabit wired networking is
ideal for media-centric applications like streaming video, gaming,
and Voice over IP telephony, and gives you plenty of headroom to
run multiple media-intense data streams through the network at the
same time, with no degradation in performance. With the Linksys
Wireless-N Storage Link Router at the center of your home or office
network, you can easily add storage, share a high-speed Internet
connection, files, printers and multi-player games, and run media-
intensive applications at amazing speeds, without the hassle of
stringing wires!
