NETGEAR’s RangeMax Wireless Router (WPN 824) extends your wireless network coverage
up to 10 times that of standard 802.11g due to an advanced Smart MIMO (Multi-In, Multi-Out)
technology that incorporates seven intelligent internal antennas. The antennas continuously
scan your home or office, automatically sensing obstacles and electronic interference, then
dynamically adjust the wireless signal to compensate and maintain a clear connection. You
enjoy reliable high-speed connections with virtually no dropouts or dead spots.
Securing your wireless network has never been easier. NETGEAR’s Touchless WiFi Security
delivers the highest level of wireless network security (WEP, WPA/PSK, or WPA2/PSK). In addition,
with an integrated security dashboard, you can monitor and manage access to websites. Every
PC accessing the Internet can be managed form one central location. And, NETGEAR’s
Smart Wizard installation software makes setup easy.
