N_One Wireless Broadband Router
DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a
dynamic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. The Wireless Broad-
band Router can act as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.
Configuration & Management
Configuration File Upload/Download. Save (download) the configuration
data from the Wireless Broadband Router to your PC, and restore (upload) a pre-
viously-saved configuration file to the Wireless Broadband Router.
Remote Management. The Wireless Broadband Router can be managed from
any PC on your LAN or Wireless LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can
also (optionally) be configured via the Internet.
Diagnostics. You can use the Wireless Broadband Router to perform a Ping or
DNS lookup.
UPnP Support. UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows automatic discovery
and configuration of the Wireless Broadband router. UPnP is by supported by
Windows ME, XP, or later.
Security Features
Password - protected Configuration. Password protection is provided to
prevent unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.
Wireless LAN Security. WPA/WPA2-PSK, WEP and Wireless access control
by MAC address are also supported. The MAC-level access control feature can
be used to prevent unknown wireless stations from accessing your LAN.
NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation)
technology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the loca-
tion and even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint,
there is no network, only a single device - the Wireless Broadband Router.
Firewall. All incoming data packets are monitored and all incoming server re-
quests are filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from
external sources.
Protection against DoS attacks. DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood
your Internet connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so
much bandwidth and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavail-
able. The Wireless Broadband Router incorporates protection against DoS attacks.
