The Linksys® WRT350N Wireless-N Gigabit Router with Storage Link combines the functionality of four devices into a single one - wireless access point, 4-port full-duplex 10/100/1000 switch, router and a storage link. The Wireless Access Point lets you connect to the network without wires. It uses Wireless-N's ‘Multiple In, Multiple Out’ (MIMO) technology to multiply the effective data rate by overlaying the signals of multiple radios, reducing ‘dead spots’ and increasing range. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100/1000 Switch that connects to your wired-Ethernet devices together at up to gigabit speeds. The Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection. The WRT350N offers 256-bit encryption to protect your data and privacy by encoding all wireless transmissions with industrial-strength.
