Secure, High-speed Wireless Networking

Speed, easy access, and protection – you can count on all three when you install NETGEAR’s Cable/DSL 802.11a High-Speed Wireless Router. Data transfer at blazing speeds of up to 54 Mbps or even 72 Mbps in ”turbo mode” puts your business in the fast lane. You'll not only experience speedier file transfers, but you can share your broadband Internet connection, files and printers with up to 253 computers! This high-performance router lets you extend your existing Ethernet network to remote locations within the building with all the ease of wireless connectivity. It gives users the freedom to roam throughout the office and stay connected to the corporate network. At the same time, you can be assured of total privacy with NAT routing protecting your computers and your network against hackers. There’s also a free and complete FreedomTM Anti-Virus and privacy software bundle included to provide additional protection for your network. And your optimized network will be up and running in minutes – Smart Wizard and Install Assistant help to make setup fast and easy.

One: a NAT router allows you to share one broadband Internet connection on multiple PCs and thwarts hackers. Two: a built-in IEEE 802.11a Wireless Access Point allows you to connect PCs without running additional wires. Three: a built-in 4-port 10/100 switch directly connects your PCs to your network

Up to 6 times faster than 11 Mbps 802.11b wireless, this router gives you extensive coverage and available bandwidth, plus reliable connectivity with eight (8) non-overlapping channels in the 5 GHz band (5.15 to 5.35 GHz). Its superior capacity supports more users than 11 Mbps wireless networks – up to 64 – and increases potential wireless network density.

Your network is protected from wireless eavesdroppers, with up to 152-bit encryption. Network Address Translation (NAT) routing stops hackers' attempts while it enables shared access to your broadband connection. IPSec-based VPN (Virtual Private Network) pass-through allows you secure access to your office or corporate network. Web page URL content filtering lets you control access to inappropriate Web sites, and you can set it to send you e-mail alerts and reports of surfing activity, plus tracking information. Additionally, free, complete anti-virus software for eight PCs (a $240 value) is included, which blocks, scans, and destroys virus, worm, and Trojan attacks.

Smart Wizard connects to your ISP quickly; the easy-to-use Web-based configuration screen and Install Assistant reduce setup time. Remote administration capability makes connecting to multiple sites a breeze. Port Forwarding controls make it simple to play Internet games, communicate using multimedia applications (such as NetMeeting), and establish a DMZ. Lighted LEDs display status at a glance, and an Ethernet cable is included for connecting your first computer – saving you up to $15.
