The Wireless-G Broadband Router with SRX is really three devices in one box.
First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect Wireless-G, Wire-
less-B, and other performance-enhanced SRX 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 SRX combines smart antenna technol-
ogy with standards-based Wireless-G (802.11g) networking. By overlaying the
signals of two Wireless-G compatible radios, the "Multiple In, Multiple Out"
(MIMO) technology effectively doubles the data rate. Unlike ordinary wireless
networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections, MIMO actu-
ally uses these reflections to increase the range and reduce "dead spots" in
the wireless coverage area. The robust signal travels farther, maintaining
wireless connections up to 3 times farther than standard Wireless-G. And the
farther away you are, the more advantage you get -- the higher data rate
and reflection-friendly technology can yield up to 8 times more throughput
than Wireless-G in some situations. The router avoids interference by dynami-
cally switching to the clearest channel available. Even your standard Wire-
less-G and -B equipment will work better when communicating with SRX-
enabled devices.
To help protect your data and privacy, the Router can encode all wireless
transmissions with industrial-strength WEP encryption. It can serve as your net-
work'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.
With the Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router with SRX at the center of your
home or office network, you can share a high-speed Internet connection,
files, printers, and multi-player games with flexibility, speed, and security!
