Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of this Broadband Wireless Router. This device has
been specifically designed to provide Local Area Network (LAN) users with multiple
access to the Internet at the cost of a single public IP Address. Connections can be
made via Cable or ADSL modems allowing secure and high-speed Internet access.
Wireless Router combines wireless and Ethernet network technology together. Fully
compatible with IEEE 802.11b wireless standard (Note that different models may
support different standards), this device not only allows you to take advantage of
mobility, but also to have fast Ethernet connection with built-in four 10/100
auto-sensing switch Ethernet ports.
Users on wireless LAN and Ethernet LAN can
share files, printers, and other networking resource each other at a blazing speed. Best
of all, with NAT technology, all users can share single account of Internet access by
having this device connect to a DSL/Cable modem.
With built-in NAT, this device not only provides natural firewall, protecting your
network from access by outside users but also extends your LAN connection. Users on
the LAN can share a single account of Internet access by having this device connect to
a DSL/Cable modem. This Firewall Router allows up to 253 users on the Ethernet
LAN simultaneously but makes IP configuration simple and easy. Configured as a
DHCP server, the Broadband Wireless Router assigns an IP Address to every
connected PC on Ethernet LAN automatically. Also, DHCP client helps WAN port

Unlike other typical routers, which share only 10Mbps over all of their connections,
this Broadband Wireless Router is equipped with a blazing 4-port 10M/100Mbps
auto-sensing switch, dedicating a full 100Mbps to each and every connected PC. Not
only will all of your PCs be able to enjoy lightning-fast Broadband Internet
connections, but they will also be able to share internal network data, like files,
printers, and other networking resources, ten times faster than the Broadband Internet
