The Wireless-G Broadband Router with SpeedBooster is
really three devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless
Access Point, which lets you connect Wireless-G, Wireless-B,
and other performance-enhanced SpeedBooster devices
to the network. 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 Wireless-G Broadband Router with SpeedBooster
incorporates the next generation of Wireless-G (802.11g)
networking. SpeedBooster technology is a compatible
add-on to standard Wireless-G, which increases "real-world"
wireless network performance by up to 35%. Unlike other
speed-enhancing technologies, SpeedBooster is fully
Broadband Router
Wireless-G
with SpeedBooster
802.11 compliant, and a "good neighbor" to other wireless
devices and technologies, using a single 2.4GHz channel as
specified by the official wireless standard. And, unlike other
technologies, with SpeedBooster you'll see an overall speed
improvement even when running a mixed network of
SpeedBooster and regular Wireless-G devices.
To protect your data and privacy, the Router can protect all
wireless transmissions with 128-bit 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.
The Router also enables the new Linksys Parental Control
Service,* which makes it easy for you to keep your family safe
on the Internet. First, set individual profiles for time-of-day and
day-of-week access restrictions. Then, choosing from 16
different web content categories, you control what each family
member is allowed to see. E-mail and instant messaging filters
let you decide who can send messages to, and receive
messages from, your family. View on-line individualized activity
reports anytime. A free trial of the Service is included with the
Router.
With the Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router with
SpeedBooster 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!
* Parental Control available to US and Canada customers only.
