Allied Telesyn announced the launch of its new AT-WA1104G SOHO wireless
router. Ideally designed to meet the needs of home networks and small offices,
the AT-WA1104G allows connections to xDSL, cable modem and fix IP to get
Internet access instantly and share the connection among multiple PCs either
wired or wirelessly.
The AT-WA1104G supports 802.11g wireless transmission at 54Mbps, which is
five times faster than the current 802.11b standard, and it can simultaneously
operate on both the 802.11b and 802.11g standards with dynamic channel
selection.
With the Wireless Distribution system (WDS) support in AT-WA1104G, network
dead spots can be eliminated and long-ranging connectivity can be obtained by
adding the products in the area to gain signal strength. Furthermore, WDS allows
AT-WA1104G to wirelessly communicate with each other or other WDS-based wireless
routers in order to extend the range of a wireless network. The Fast Ethernet
WAN port also enables users to select from a range of WAN connections and
operates in a range of modes (PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP and direct connection) for
additional flexibility.
The network via AT-WA1104G is protected by 128-bit, “Shared Key” Wireless
Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption, WiFi Protected Access (WPA) and temporary
Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) encryption. This optimally protects data
transferred over the air; while state-of-art user authentications are supplied
by RADIUS support.
Wireless access to network can be further limited by means of Access Control
Lists. Managers can also assign LAN users to different groups and define a set
of internet services authorized for use by each group. The AT-WA1104G helps keep
intruders out of the networked computers and provides additional comfort of mind
that your network will remain highly secured in the future.
“AT-WA1104G is so versatile that small companies can use a single
cost-effective device to meet all of their wireless communications needs while
driving costs down”, said Jason Phoon, Deputy Director - Product Marketing
& Fulfillment (APac), Allied Telesyn.
