Introduction
•
Wireless MAC Access Control. The Wireless Access Control feature can check the
MAC address (hardware address) of Wireless stations to ensure that only trusted Wireless
Stations can access your LAN.
• Simple Configuration. If the default settings are unsuitable, they can be changed
quickly and easily.
•
WPS Support. WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) can simplify the process of connecting any
device to the wireless network by using the push button configuration (PBC) on the Wire-
less Access Point, or entering a PIN code if there's no button.
• WDS Support. Support for WDS (Wireless Distribution System) allows the Wireless
Access Point to act as a Wireless Bridge.
LAN Features
• 4-Port Switching Hub. The Wireless-N Broadband Router incorporates a 4-port
10/100BaseT switching hub, making it easy to create or extend your LAN.
•
DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a dynamic IP
address to PCs and other devices upon request. The Wireless-N Broadband Router can act
as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.
Configuration & Management
• Easy Setup. Use your WEB browser from anywhere on the LAN or WLAN for configu-
ration.
•
Configuration File Upload/Download. Save (download) the configuration data from
the Wireless-N Broadband Router to your PC, and restore (upload) a previously-saved
configuration file to the Wireless-N Broadband Router.
• Remote Management. The Wireless-N Broadband Router can be managed from any
PC on your LAN or Wireless LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can also (op-
tionally) be configured via the Internet.
•
Network Diagnostics. You can use the Wireless-N Broadband Router to perform a
Ping or DNS lookup.
•
UPnP Support. UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows automatic discovery and con-
figuration of the Wireless-N Broadband Router. UPnP is supported by Windows ME, XP,
or later.
Security Features
• Password - protected Configuration. Password protection is provided to prevent
unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.
•
Wireless LAN Security. WPA-PSK, WEP and Wireless access control by MAC ad-
dress are all supported. The MAC-level access control feature can be used to prevent
unknown wireless stations from accessing your LAN.
•
NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation) tech-
nology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and
even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no network,
only a single device - the Wireless-N Broadband Router.
•
Firewall. All incoming data packets are monitored and all incoming server requests are
filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from external sources.
•
Protection against DoS attacks. DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood your
Internet connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so much band-
width and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavailable. The Wireless-N
Broadband Router incorporates protection against DoS attacks.
