Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Wireless Gigabit VPN Router N600
X5. The WLR-5001 is compliant with 802.11a and 802.11n and up to 6 times
faster than standard 802.11g based routers while still being compatible with
802.11g & 802.11b devices. The WLR-5001 is not only a Wireless Access
Point, but also doubles as a 4-port full-duplex Gigabit switch that connects
your wired-Ethernet devices together at 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds.
At 300 Mbps wireless transmission rate, the Access Point built into the Router
uses advanced MIMO (Multi-Input, Multi-Output) technology to transmit
multiple streams of data in a single wireless channel, giving you seamless
access to multimedia content. The robust RF signal travels farther, eliminates
dead spots and extends the network range. For data protection and privacy,
the WLR-5001 encodes all wireless transmissions with WEP, WPA, or WPA2
encryption.
With the built-in DHCP Server & powerful SPI firewall, the WLR-5001 protects
your computers against intruders and most known Internet attacks and also
provides safe VPN pass-through. With the incredible speed and QoS function
of 802.11n the WLR-5001 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.
With Sitecom Cloud Security, Sitecom goes one step further and ensures that
you can surf the Internet even more safely, not only on your PC, but on all
the devices in your home which you use to access the Internet. All the
Internet devices in your home are protected against the dangers of Internet
criminality.
You can use the WLR-5001 as a VPN client to access an external VPN server
or you can configure the router as a VPN server to be able to access your
home network from any location using the Internet. With VPN technology you
always make use of a highly secured and encrypted VPN tunnel.
