1 Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of ESR1221N Wireless Network Broadband Router. ESR1221N is compatible with 802.11b/g/n gadgets. ESR1221N is not only a Wireless Access Point, but also doubles as a 4-port full-duplex Switch that connects your wired-Ethernet devices together at incredible speeds.
At 150Mbps wireless transmission rate, Access Point built into the Router uses advanced MIMO (Multi-Input, Multi-Output) technology to transmit multiple steams of data in a single wireless channel giving you seamless access to multimedia content. Robust RF signal travels farther, eliminates dead spots and extends network range. For data protection and privacy, ESR1221N encodes all wireless transmissions with WEP, WPA, and WPA2 encryption.
With inbuilt DHCP Server & powerful SPI firewall ESR1221N protects your computers against intruders and most known Internet attacks but provides safe VPN pass-through. With incredible speed and QoS function, ESR1221N is ideal for media-centric applications like streaming video, gaming, and VoIP telephony to run multiple media-intense data streams through the network at the same time, with no degradation in performance.
