Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the WL-614 Wireless Network Broadband

Router. The WL-614 is compliant with draft 802.11n v 2.0 up to 6 times faster

than standard 802.11g based routers while still being compatible with

802.11g & 802.11b gadgets. The WL-614 is not only a Wireless Access Point,

but also doubles as a 4-port full-duplex Switch that connects your wired-

Ethernet devices together at.

At 300 Mbps wireless transmission rate, the Access Point built into the Router

uses advanced MIMO (Multi-Input, Multi-Output) technology to transmit

multiple steams of data in a single wireless channel, giving you seamless

access to multimedia content. Robust RF signal travels farther, eliminates

dead spots and extends network range. For data protection and privacy, the

WL-614 encodes all wireless transmissions with WEP, WPA, and WPA2

encryption.

With the inbuilt DHCP Server & powerful SPI firewall, the WL-614 protects

your computers against intruders and most known Internet attacks but

provides safe VPN pass-through. With incredible speed and QoS function of

802.11n(draft2.0), the WL-614 is ideal for media-centric applications like

streaming video, gaming, and VoIP telephony to run multiple media-intense

data streams through the network at the same time, with no degradation in

performance.
