About the Router
With the consistent increase of wireless devices in need of a wireless connection, the rise of the devices which are capable of fully catering to the needs of each wireless device that you have in your home is also essential. Aztech WL576E, a Wall-Plugged 300Mbps High-Speed Wireless-N AP, prioritizes this role while providing other user-centric features that comply to each of your wireless devices’ needs.

Ideal Portable Design for a Hassle Free Setup
Designed with an embedded power adapter, the Aztech WL576E implements a simple yet unique design which prioritizes more on device portability rather than the usual hyped up and unnecessary device designs present in the market. With its embedded power adapter, table space consumption and device location would never be a problem. In addition, due to its simple design, device setup becomes easier and hassle free due to its intuitive design which enable users to quickly setup their network.
Wireless Connectivity Option
As an added plus, the WL576E has a WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) feature which enable users to connect their WPS enabled wireless devices to connect wirelessly to the WL576E with a simple press of the WPS button on both devices. This eliminates the hassle wireless network searching and correct password entry we commonly avoid.
