Introduction
Overview
The Wireless Routing Center features a wireless Access Point, a four-port LAN
switch and a WAN port, which extend your existing broadband Cable/ADSL
connection. It allows the broadband connection to be shared through either the
IEEE 802.11b Access Point feature or the 10/100Base-TX Ethernet® switch,
which also eliminates the need for an additional hub or switch.
The integrated DHCP server automatically assigns IP addresses to your LAN
devices, and with the built-in Network Address Translation (NAT) function, your
LAN is protected against outside intruders. The router can also be configured to
filter internal access to the Internet. It is designed to provide a reliable Internet
access solution for the corporate environment, the small office and the home user.
