Introducing Innoware's most consistant and trusted technology: Wi-Ware.
Maximize wireless coverage. Network faster than ever before. Purpose-built for the metropolitan Wi-Ware market, the iNNOWARE Wi-Ware Mesh Access Points are built on the same reliable software used in iNNOWARE enterprise networks to ensure carrier-quality availability.
The iNNOWARE Wi-Ware Broadband Router is really three devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect to the network without wires. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. Finally, the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection.
The Access Point built into the Router uses the very latest wireless networking technology: Wi-Ware (draft 802.11n). By overlaying the signals of multiple radios, Wi-Ware's "Multiple In, Multiple Out" (MIMO) technology multiplies the effective data rate. Unlike ordinary wireless networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections, MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the range and reduce "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area. The robust signal travels farther, maintaining wireless connections much farther than standard Wi-Ware-G.
With Wi-Ware, the farther away you are, the more speed advantage you get. It works great with standard Wi-Ware-G and -B equipment, but when both ends of the wireless link are Wi-Ware, the router can increase the throughput even more by using twice as much radio band, yielding speeds far faster than standard Wi-Ware-G. But unlike other speed-enhanced technologies, Wi-Ware can dynamically enable this double-speed mode for Wi-Ware devices, while still connecting to other wireless devices at their respective fastest speeds. In congested areas, the "good neighbor" mode ensures that the Router checks for other wireless devices in the area before gobbling up the radio band.
To help protect your data and privacy, the Router can encode all wireless transmissions with industrial-strength 256-bit encryption. It can serve as your network's DHCP Server, has a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against intruders and most known Internet attacks, and supports VPN pass-through. Configuration is a snap with the web browser-based configuration utility.
The incredible speed of Wi-Ware makes it ideal for media-centric applications like streaming video, gaming, and Voice over IP telephony, and gives you plenty of headroom to run multiple media-intense data streams through the network at the same time, with no degradation in performance. With the Linksys Wi-Ware Broadband Router at the center of your home or office network, you can share a high-speed Internet connection, files, printers, and multi-player games, and run media-intensive applications at incredible speeds, without the hassle of stringing wires!
