Three antennas Introduction to Wireless Router General Description The IEEE802.11n Wireless Router is compatible with IEEE802.11n draft 2.0 standard, which supports data rate up to 300 Mbps in 2.4 GHz band, which is also compatible with IEEE 802.11b/g wireless devices. The router allows multiple users to share one broadband connection, as well as secures your private network. With its built-in 4-port switch and wireless AP, LAN users can share files, printers, or playing network games all at a blazing speed. To provide a secure wireless network, this router supports wireless data encryption with 64/128-bit WEP, WPA and WPA2. Network Address Translation (NAT) Firewall is also support to shield your communications and network from hackers and wireless eavesdroppers. The Wireless Router built-in with 4-port 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet Switch is the latest generation of Wireless router product for Home/Office and SOHO users. This full-feature and self-contained compact Wireless Router will be fully for broadband access in both of LAN and Wireless environment. This device has been specifically designed to provide LAN and Wireless users the most cost-effective method with multiple accesses to the Internet at the cost of a single public IP addressIP Sharing and enjoy the true Plug-and-Play installation. Moreover, the built-in 4-port 10/100Mbps switch lets users plug the network cable into the device without buying additional switch. This device is also an Access Point. It has a built-in wireless LAN. Users can connect to Internet using wireless network interfaces anywhere within the range of its radio transmission. Its ideal for SOHO users who require instant and convenient access to Internet without the restriction of connecting cables. 7 The Front Panel The front panel of the Wireless Router:

LEDs Definitions

Status LED The LED will be dark for a few seconds when the system is started. After that, the LED will blink periodically to show the Wireless Router is working normally. If the LED stays green/dark that means the system failed, you need to contact your agent or try to reboot the system.

WLAN LED When Wireless Router is ready for data transmitting and receiving, it is steady green.

LAN LEDs Every port has an Act/Link LED. Steady green (link state) indicates that the port has good linkage to its associated devices. Flashing green indicates that the port is receiving or transmitting data between its associated devices.

WAN LED The LED stays light (green) means the WAN port has good linkage to its associated devices. The LED will blink green when there is traffic transverse the port.

EZsetup Button1 EZsetup button helps out users to connect this Router to Internet quickly. It uses Push Button Communication (PBC) method, in which users can simply push this button to easy setup WPS connection.
