MODEL- WRT160N VENDOR- LINKSYS
FEATURES- Ultra RangePlus Wireless-N Broadband Router
Maximize wireless coverage. Network faster than ever before!
The Ultra RangePlus Wireless-N Broadband Router is really three
devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which
lets you connect to the network without wires. There's also a
built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-
Ethernet devices together. Finally, 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 the very latest wireless
networking technology: Wireless-N (draft 802.11n). By overlaying
the signals of multiple radios, Wireless-N's "Multiple In, Multiple
Out" (MIMO) technology multiplies the effective data rate. Unlike
ordinary wireless networking technologies that are confused by
signal reflections, MIMO actually uses these reflections to
increase the range and reduce "dead spots" in the wireless coverage
area. The robust signal travels farther, maintaining wireless
connections much farther than standard Wireless-G.
With Wireless-N, the farther away you are, the more speed advantage
you get. It works great with standard Wireless-G and -B equipment,
but when both ends of the wireless link are Wireless-N, the router
can increase the throughput even more by using twice as much radio
band, yielding speeds far faster than standard Wireless-G. But
unlike other speed-enhanced technologies, Wireless-N can
dynamically enable this double-speed mode for Wireless-N devices,
while still connecting to other wireless devices at their
respective fastest speeds. In congested areas, the "good neighbor"
mode ensures that the Router checks for other wireless devices in
the area before gobbling up the radio band.
To help protect your data and privacy, the Router can encode all
wireless transmissions with industrial-strength 256-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. Configuration is a
snap with the web browser-based configuration utility.
The incredible speed of Wireless-N makes it ideal for media-centric
applications like streaming video, gaming, and Voice over IP
telephony, and gives you plenty of headroom to run multiple media-
intense data streams through the network at the same time, with no
degradation in performance. With the Linksys Wireless-N Broadband
Router at the center of your home or office network, you can share
a high-speed Internet connection, files, printers, and multi-player
games, and run media-intensive applications at incredible speeds,
without the hassle of stringing wires!
