Belkin networking presents its latest breakthrough 54g technology products that make wireless files transfer and download faster than ever before. 54g technology provides you with networking speeds nearly five times faster than the current Wi-Fi (802.11b) standard. 54g technology is the easiest wireless network to implement.
The Belkin 54g Wireless Broadband Router lets users share files and a broadband Internet connection among their computers-without using networking cables. It features 54g technology that makes accessing files and networked peripherals - such as hard drives, printers, CD-ROMs, and DVDs-easier than ever. An integrated, 4-port 10/100Base-T Ethernet switch also allows you to connect wired computers to the network.
Easy Install Wizard
The Easy Install Wizard takes the guesswork out of setting up the Belkin 54g Wireless Broadband Router . This automatic software determines your network settings for you and sets up the Router for connection to your Internet Service Provider (ISP). In a matter of minutes, your Router will be up and running on the Internet.
Integrated Parental Control (Web Filter)
Belkin has teamed with Cerberian, a leading content filtering company, to bring you this unique feature. Your Router is the first home networking solution with an integrated web content filter that allows you to block unwanted or offensive web content before it makes it to your network. Unlike other Parental Control solutions, this one is built into the router. There is no software to install on any computer and you will never be charged a per-computer fee for the service. Your Router comes with a six-month free trial of this feature so you can take advantage of the capabilities straight away. No credit card is needed to use the trial. You have control: Belkin Parental Control can be modified to meet your needs. You can set up your own policies and block any website you want. There is also an optional reporting feature (fee-based) that allows you to get a report showing you every website that was visited from your network. Please note that parental control for this router is not supported by all Internet Service Providers and so we advise you to check this with your ISP before purchasing.
