2.54Mbps wireless ne
Summary
Wireless-G is the upcoming
54Mbps
wireless networking standard thats
almost five times faster than the widely deployed Wireless-B (802.11b) products
found in homes, businesses, and public wireless hotspots around the country
but since they share the same 2.4GHz radio band, Wireless-G devices can
also interoperate with existing 11Mbps Wireless-B equipment.
Since both standards are built in, you can protect your investment in existing
802.11b infrastructure, and migrate to the new screaming fast Wireless-G standard
as your needs grow.
The Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router is really three devices in one box.
First, theres the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect Wireless-G or
Wireless-B devices to the network. Theres also a built-in 4-port full-duplex
10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices. Connect four PCs
directly, or daisy-chain out to more hubs and switches to create as big a network
as you need. Finally, the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole
network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection.
To protect your data and privacy, the Wireless-G Broadband Router can encrypt
all wireless transmissions. The Router can serve as a DHCP Server, has NAT
technology to protect against Internet intruders, supports VPN pass-through,
and can be configured to filter internal users access to the Internet.
Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based configuration utility.
With the Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router at the center of your home or
office network, you can share a high-speed Internet connection, files, printers,
and multi-player games with the flexibility, speed, and security you need!

The Router Function

Simply put, a router is a network device that connects two networks together.
In this instance, the Router connects your Local Area Network (LAN), or the
group of PCs in your home or office, to the Internet. The Router processes and
regulates the data that travels between these two networks.
The Routers NAT feature protects your network of PCs so users on the public,
Internet side cannot see your PCs. This is how your network remains private.
The Router protects your network by inspecting every packet coming in
through the Internet port before delivery to the appropriate PC on your network.
The Router inspects Internet port services like the web server, ftp server,
or other Internet applications, and, if allowed, it will forward the packet to the
appropriate PC on the LAN side.
Remember that the Routers ports connect to two sides. The LAN ports connect
to the LAN, and the Internet port connects to the Internet. The LAN and
Internet ports transmit data at 10/100Mbps.
