Web-Based Advanced User Interface
You can set up the Router’s advanced functions easily through your web
browser, without having to install additional software onto the computer.
There are no disks to install or keep track of and, best of all, you can make
changes and perform setup functions from any computer on the network
quickly and easily.
NAT IP Address Sharing
Your Router employs Network Address Translation (NAT) to share the
single IP address assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider while
saving the cost of adding
additional IP addresses to your
Internet service
account.
SPI Firewall
Your Router is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network from
a wide array of common hacker attacks including IP Spoofing, Land Attack,
Ping of Death (PoD), Denial of Service (DoS), IP with zero length, Smurf
Attack, TCP Null Scan, SYN flood, UDP flooding, Tear Drop Attack, ICMP
defect, RIP defect, and fragment flooding.
Integrated 10/100 4-Port Switch
The Router has a built-in, four-port network switch to allow your wired
computers to share printers, data and MP3 files, digital photos, and much
more. The switch features automatic detection so it will adjust to the speed
of connected devices. The switch will transfer data between computers
and the Internet simultaneously without interrupting or consuming
resources.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
UPnP is a technology that offers seamless operation of voice messaging,
video messaging, games, and other applications that are UPnP-compliant.
Support for VPN Pass-Through
If you connect to your office network from home using a VPN connection,
your Router will allow your VPN-equipped computer to pass through the
Router and to your office network.
Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) on-board makes for
the easiest possible connection of a network. The DHCP server will assign
IP addresses to each computer automatically so there is no need for a
complicated networking setup.
