The JRS Eco 100 wireless router: 100% radiation-free in stand-by
An ordinary wifi router broadcasts beacon signals 24 hours a day, 10
ti es a second. This generates a considerable a ount of radiation in the
ho e, clearly easurable.
Wireless on demand The unique JRS Eco 100 fir ware, running on a
fast Asus® router, enables a Full Eco standby ode with 0%
electro agnetic e issions when no wireless devices are connected.
The router switches the wireless signal back on i ediately when you
enable wifi on your device or open the list of available networks. Even
when wireless is active, it has an up to 90% reduced pulse frequency
(see Appendix 1).
The globally unique JRS Eco 100 technology is co patible with all
brands and odels of wireless devices: Android®, Apple®, Windows®
and others. You don’t lose any wifi speed, range or stability. The
JRS Eco 100 also offers a reduced beacon pulsation frequency, just like
the previous generation JRS Eco routers, even during use.
JRS Eco 100 is a special fir ware / operating syste for specific odels
of Asus routers. It is an extension of the original Asus fir ware.

1 Is a router running JRS Eco firmware safe in terms of exposure
to wifi radiation?
A wifi router e its electro agnetic radiation, which is
shown to be possibly unsafe in nu erous scientific
studies, even if the e issions are below current official
exposure li its. A nu ber of studies are listed on our
website at www.jrseco.co /science. You can reduce your
exposure by li iting the duration of exposure and by increasing the
distance between your body and the antennas. Any wifi device has
antennas, either internal or external.
Although the JRS Eco 100 on Asus router fir ware easurably reduces
router electro agnetic field (EMF) e issions, JRS offers no other than
legally required safety guarantees regarding the electro agnetic radiation
of the router running the JRS Eco fir ware, and use is at your own risk and
responsibility.
Wifi is two-way traffic. Both the router and your wireless devices e it
EMFs. Although the Eco firmware greatly reduces router radiation
during stand-by and partly during operation, it does not reduce
radiation from your wireless devices For each piece of data sent fro
the wifi router, a confir ation is sent back by your device. Wifi radiation
fro devices is very strong and you keep the device very close to your
body. Especially in data-intensive applications such as video, wifi radiation
fro the device is high. Even when the router is off, your wireless device
will still e it wifi radiation as long as its wifi is turned on. Most devices will
inter ittently send out wifi network scans, looking for available wifi
networks.
By using the JRS Eco firmware you agree to be aware of the risks and
that the use of the router and firmware is at your own risk It ay be
possible to reduce the trans it power of your co puter's wifi adapter by
adjusting its settings with the Windows® Device Manager. You can ini ize
your exposure to electro agnetic radiation by working with a wired Internet
connection. A hardwired Internet connection is radiation-free.
The router manual from Asus proposes the use of the AiMesh system
which allows multiple Asus routers to be interconnected wirelessly. This is
not supported by the JRS Eco firmware and will increase wifi radiation,
because all wireless si nals then need to be transmitted multiple times,
hoppin from one mesh node to another.

2 Installing your Eco wireless router
The figure below shows how to connect the router to your Internet
ode .
1. Connect the included Ethernet cable fro the blue WAN port of the
Eco router to a free LAN port of your Internet ode . Hardwiring a
co puter is optional.
2. Mount the antennas on the Eco router. If a plug adapter was
included in your ship ent, push the power adapter in as far as it
will go. Connect the power adapter to the router and plug the
adapter into a power outlet.
3. Important! If your Internet modem has wifi built in, switch it
off If you don't know how, ask the custo er service of your
provider for help. See Chapter 5 in this anual for ore details.
In almost all cases the router will automatically detect the connection
type, provided you have wired it correctly to your Internet modem/router.
If you are not ettin Internet throu h the Eco router, please inform with
your Internet Service Provider about the required settin s.
