Introduction
Configuration & Management
∙Easy Setup. Use your Web browser from anywhere on the LAN for configuration.
∙Remote Management. The SpeedStream Powerline Wireless Router can be managed from any PC on your LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can also (optionally) be configured via the Internet.
∙UPnP Support. UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) allows automatic discovery and configuration of the SpeedStream Powerline Wireless Router. UPnP is by supported by Windows ME, XP, or later.
Security Features
∙Password - protected Configuration. Optional password protection is provided to prevent unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.
∙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 location and even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no net- work, only a single device - the SpeedStream Powerline Wireless Router.
∙Stateful Inspection Firewall. All incoming data packets are monitored and all incom- ing server requests 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 band- width and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavailable. The SpeedStream Powerline Wireless Router incorporates protection against DoS attacks.
