Belkin Makes Wireless Networking Easier

SHARE:

Adjust text size:



Belkin Corporation introduces its next-generation Easy Install Wizard with new features designed to make your wireless networking experience--from setup to enabling security to web-surfing--easier and more accessible.

Belkin's Easy Install Wizard will include the "Strong Security Made Simple" setup feature, a quick and easy-to-use interface for setting up wireless security on routers. Because this security feature is standards-based,
any Wi-Fi certified wireless client could securely associate to the network.

The "Guest Access" feature in the Wizard enables an Internet-only connection for guest users. It increases security by having two passwords, one for local users and one for guest users. The local user password gives complete access to the network, while the guest user password provides access only to the Internet and will not allow accessibility to other computers on the local network.

Belkin's new client Wireless Networking Utility features an intuitive graphical user interface that provides a visual representation of network connections, and the signal strength and security settings of a neighboring router(s) and/or access point(s), providing straightforward diagnostic and troubleshooting data--all of which make wireless networking easy.

These features will be available in the Belkin:

- Wireless G line (Router F5D7230-4; Notebook Card F5D7010; Desktop Card F5D7000; USB Adapter F5D7050): September 30, 2005

- Wireless G Plus line (Router F5D7231-4; Desktop Card F5D7001; Notebook Card F5D7011): Early spring 2006
