1.1 Features at a glance
Introduction
This section provides a brief overview of the main features of your Gateway.
Superior wireless performance
The integrated IEEE 802.11n 2.4 GHz 3x3 and IEEE 802.11ac 5 GHz 3x3 wireless access points are optimized for high-speed
video and data transfer over wireless.
Each access point has multiple wireless transmitters and receivers. This allows it to handle multiple data streams at the same time
and boost the wireless transmission rate and data stream reliability.
IPv6 Ready
Your Gateway is IPv6 ready. Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is the next generation of Internet technologies aiming to
effectively support the ever-expanding Internet usage and functionality, and also to address security concerns that exist in an
IPv4 environment.
Internet connection features
Broadband access via the integrated DOCSIS 3.0 (16x4) Cable Modem
Parental control allows you to restrict access to specific websites, services or your network.
For more information, see “6.1 Parental control” on page 44.
The Gateway has an integrated firewall to protect you from malicious attacks.
For more information, see “6.2 Firewall” on page 52.
