The Wireless-N Home Router from Linksys combines the functions of a Cable/DSL router and a wireless access point into one compact device. The router allows you to share your Internet connection between several computers that can connect via the draft 802.11n wireless protocol or via any of 4 wired RJ-45 Ethernet ports. The router is also fully backwards compatible with legacy 802.11b/g devices.
The router also features a firewall to protect you from malicious software that can attack your computer from the Internet, as well as wireless security to insure that your data remains private.
The router can achieve speeds of up to nine times of that of 802.11g when used with 802.11n devices. It is also fully backward compatible with devices that use the older 54 Mbps 802.11g and 11 Mbps 802.11b standards. These features make the wireless router a great way to add wireless access to your home network.
