Fast and Far
Wireless Speed and Range
The Wireless-N Broadband Router uses the very latest wireless networking technology, Wireless-N. By overlaying the signals of multiple radios, Wireless-N's "Multiple In, Multiple Out" (MIMO) technology multiplies the effective data rate.
- Wireless-N technology for robust speed and range, and more complete coverage throughout your home

- Also connects to Wireless-G or -B devices
- Double Channel Width mode doubles the throughput
- Specially designed internal antennas provide great range in an attractive, sleek case that looks good in any room, on a shelf or wall-mounted
Fast Wired Connections
The Router also provides connections for 4 directly-wired network devices. You'll get fast file transfers to network storage devices, printers, and other wired network devices.On-time delivery with QoS
And, to deliver your time-sensitive Internet traffic efficiently, the Router features Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities. QoS tells your network to give priority to packets in time-sensitive streams like Voice (VoIP) or media (audio or video), so that these types of applications can deliver less garbled conversations and smoother digital video.
- Prioritize applications:
- MSN Messenger, Skype, or Yahoo! Messenger
- Many popular online game presets, or add your own
- Or prioritize devices by MAC address, specific Ethernet port, or specific Voice device
- Also supports Wi-Fi MultiMedia (WMM) for automatic prioritization of voice and video streams
Safe and Sound
Wireless Security
To help protect your data and privacy, the Router can encrypt all wireless transmissions with the latest industrial-strength 128-bit encryption.
- Choose the wireless security of WEP, WPA Personal, WPA2 Personal, WPA Enterprise, WPA2 Enterprise, or RADIUS
- Prevent or permit specific wireless devices from accessing the network by listing their MAC address
- Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ support for WPA2 secured wireless connections at the push of a button
Internet Security
The Wireless-N Broadband Router has a powerful SPI firewall to help protect you against intruders and most known Internet attacks. The Router also features filters that let you deny specific types of Internet requests, and block certain application types.
- NAT (Network Address Translation) helps prevent your local network and its devices from being "seen" from the Internet
- SPI Firewall blocks un-asked-for Internet traffic
- Port Forwarding and DMZ allow controlled access to your network resources from the Internet
Access Controls for Parents
Of growing concern for parents is the amount and type of Internet access their families have. The Wireless-N Broadband Router can help. Parents can create policies for each PC in the house, to control access by time and day, specific website, keyword, protocols, or applications.
- For each PC in the house:
- Specify Internet availability by time and day of the week
- Block specific websites by web address or categories keyword
- Block specific Internet protocols like FTP, POP3, IMAP, or SMTP
- Block specific applications, like online games, by communication ports used
For even more safety and control, parents can activate the enclosed 30-day free trial of Trend Micro's Home Network Defender, which makes your router the first line of defense for your network -- before threats even reach your home devices.
- Robust Parental Controls with website category blocking and timers
- Safe Web Surfing with Web Threat Protection technology is designed to automatically block sites identified as malicious
