1. Introduction
The Wireless-N Gigabit Router is a 802.11n compliant device that delivers up to 6x faster speeds than 802.11g while staying backward
compatible with 802.11g and 802.11b devices.
It is not only a 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 Gigabit Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. The Router function ties it all together and lets your whole
network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection.
The 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. The robust signal travels farther, maintaining wireless connections up to 3 times farther than standard
802.11g, eliminates dead spots and extends network range.
To protect the data and privacy, the Router can encode all wireless transmissions with 64/128-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. The router also provide easy configuration with the web browser-based configuration utility.
The incredible speed and QoS function of 802.11n Gigabit Router is ideal for media-centric applications like streaming video, gaming,
and VoIP telephony. It is designed to run multiple media-intense data streams through the network at the same time, with no
degradation in performance.
This chapter describes the features & benefits, package contents, applications, and network configuration.

Operating system that supports HTTP web-browser
1.6. Applications
The wireless LAN products are easy to install and highly efficient. The following list describes some of the many applications made
possible through the power and flexibility of wireless LANs:
a) Difficult-to-wire environments
There are many situations where wires cannot be laid easily. Historic buildings, older buildings, open areas and across busy
streets make the installation of LANs either impossible or very expensive.
b) Temporary workgroups
Consider situations in parks, athletic arenas, exhibition centers, disaster-recovery, temporary offices and construction sites
where one wants a temporary WLAN established and removed.
12
13
c) The ability to access real-time information
Doctors/nurses, point-of-sale employees, and warehouse workers can access real-time information while dealing with
patients, serving customers and processing information.
d) Frequently changed environments
Show rooms, meeting rooms, retail stores, and manufacturing sites where frequently rearrange the workplace.
e) Small Office and Home Office (SOHO) networks
SOHO users need a cost-effective, easy and quick installation of a small network.
f) Wireless extensions to Ethernet networks
Network managers in dynamic environments can minimize the overhead caused by moves, extensions to networks, and
other changes with wireless LANs.
g) Wired LAN backup
Network managers implement wireless LANs to provide backup for mission-critical applications running on wired networks.
h) Training/Educational facilities
Training sites at corporations and students at universities use wireless connectivity to ease access to information,
information exchanges, and learning.

1.7. Network Configuration
To better understand how the wireless LAN products work together to create a wireless network, it might be helpful to depict a
few of the possible wireless LAN PC card network configurations. The wireless LAN products can be configured as:
a) Ad-hoc (or peer-to-peer) for departmental or SOHO LANs.
b) Infrastructure for enterprise LANs.
a) Ad-hoc (peer-to-peer) Mode
This is the simplest network configuration with several computers equipped with the PC Cards that form a wireless
network whenever they are within range of one another. In ad-hoc mode, each client is peer-to-peer, would only have
access to the resources of the other client and does not require an access point. This is the easiest and least
expensive way for the SOHO to set up a wireless network. The image below depicts a network in ad-hoc mode.
14
15
b) Infrastructure Mode
The infrastructure mode requires the use of an access point (AP). In this mode, all wireless communication between
two computers has to be via the AP. It doesn’t matter if the AP is stand-alone or wired to an Ethernet network. If used
in stand-alone, the AP can extend the range of independent wireless LANs by acting as a repeater, which effectively
doubles the distance between wireless stations. The image below depicts a network in infrastructure mode.
