The Linksys Compact Wireless-G Broadband Router is really three devices in
one small box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect
both screaming fast Wireless-G (802.11g at 54Mbps) and Wireless-B (802.11b at
11Mbps) devices to the network. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex
10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. Connect four PCs
directly, or attach more hubs and switches to create as big a network as you
need. Finally, the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole
network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection.
Once your computers are connected to the Router and the Internet, they can
communicate with each other too, sharing a printer, digital music, picture and
document files, and multi-player or on-line games.
To protect your data and privacy, the Wireless-G Broadband Router can encode all
wireless transmissions with WEP or industrial-strength WPA Personal encryption.
The Router can serve as a 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. And the tiny form factor fits any home or desktop.
With the Linksys Compact Wireless-G 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 with the flexibility, speed, and security you
need!
