•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.
