Introduction
Congratulations on our purchase of the WL-351/368 Wireless Gigabit Router
300N. The WL-351/368 is compliant with 802.11n and up to 6 times faster
than standard 802.11g based routers while still being compatible with
802.11g & 802.11b gadgets. The WL-351/368 is not onl a Wireless Access
Point, but also doubles as a 4-port full-duplex Gigabit switch that connects
our wired-Ethernet devices together at 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds.
At 300 Mbps wireless transmission rate, the Access Point built into the Router
uses advanced MIMO (Multi-Input, Multi-Output) technolog to transmit
multiple streams of data in a single wireless channel, giving ou seamless
access to multimedia content. The robust RF signal travels farther, eliminates
dead spots and extends the network range. For data protection and privac ,
the WL-351/368 encodes all wireless transmissions with WEP, WPA, or WPA2
encr ption.
With the inbuilt DHCP Server & powerful SPI firewall, the WL-351/368
protects our computers against intruders and most known Internet attacks
and also provides safe VPN pass-through. With the incredible speed and QoS
function of 802.11n, the WL-351/368 is ideal for media-centric applications
like streaming video, gaming, and VoIP telephon to run multiple media-
intense data streams through the network at the same time, with no
degradation in performance.
