Chapter 1 Introduction
The Planet WNRT-610 is a wireless Pre-N router that supports high-speed wireless networking for home
or SOHO users. The WNRT-610 provides data rate up to 300 Mbps when used with other wireless Pre-N
Planet products, like USB adapter WNL-U550 and PCI WNL-9310. The Pre-N standard is backwards
compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g products. There is no need to change existing network to maintain
connectivity. You may sacrifice some of 802.11g’s performance when using 802.11b and 802.11g
devices in the same WLAN, but you still can keep the ability to communicate when deploying the 802.11g
standard into your 802.11b network.
The WNRT-610 supports the most advanced security features available today: WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK.
Authorizes and identifies users based on a secret key that changes automatically at a regular interval.
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK uses TKIP or AES to change the temporal key periodically. This insures much
greater security than the standard WEP security. (By contrast, the older WEP encryption required the
keys to be changed manually.)
The WNRT-610 will obtain a new security key every time it connects to the 802.11g network. You only
need to enter your encryption information once in the configuration menu. Then you will automatically
receive a new key every time you connect, thus highly increasing the safety of your communications.
The WNRT-610 allows you setup trigger ports of special applications, and let you utilize Internet services
smoothly. The firewall features can protect your Intranet PCs from illegal access and many kinds of DoS
attacks from the Internet. The Virtual Server and DMZ functions let you setup your servers in the Intranet
and still can provide services to the Internet users. Access Control function allows you to block the
Internet service to different clients.
The WNRT-610 supports the most advanced security features available today: WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) authorizes and identifies users based on a secret key that changes
automatically at a regular interval. WPA/WPA2-PSK uses TKIP or AES to change the temporal key
periodically. This insures much greater security than the standard WEP security. (By contrast, the older
WEP encryption required the keys to be changed manually.)
Utilizing the PSK (Pre Shared Key) mode of WPA, the WNRT-610 will obtain a new security key every
time it connects to the 802.11g network. You only need to enter your encryption information once in the
configuration menu. Then you will automatically receive a new key every time you connect, thus highly
increasing the safety of your communications.
