WNRT-617G

150Mbps 802.11n Wireless 3G/4G Router

 
3G/4G Broadband Sharing
To provide super-fast and cost-effective wireless solution for home and SOHO users, PLANET upgrades the current wireless 3G router “WNRT-617G” to 4G LTE. With the 4G LTE, users can immediately experience 25XInternet download speed than that of the earlier 3G mobile network. You just need to attach the 4G LTE USB modem card to the USB port of the WNRT-617G and enjoy real-time HD video streaming, on-line gaming and other Internet activities. The 4G LTE mobile connection is also backward compatible with 3G UMTS / HSPA / EVDO mobile network.

Network Failover Makes You Stay Online
The WNRT-617G has 3G/4G and WAN connection failover characteristics, which can automatically hand over to the redundant stable WAN connection to keep users always online without missing any fascinating moments. The WNRT-617G provides a more flexible and easier way for users to create an instant wireless network sharing service via 3G/4G modem whenever at Home, Hotspot or in public places like transportation, outdoor event, etc.
 
 
Wireless Coverage Plus !
With one 5dBi high-gain antenna attached, the WNRT-617G provides stronger signal quality and more excellent performance than normal wireless routers especially when in the long range or poor environment condition for further wireless coverage range. With the detachable RP-SMA connector design, the WNRT-617G allows users to manually upgrade higher gain antenna for greater wireless distances and coverage range across home and building. Besides essential wireless sharing for Wi-Fi clients, the WNRT-617G provides WDS (Wireless Distribution System) bridge mode to facilitate wireless network deployments and range expansion. It provides more flexibility for users while establishing wireless network.

Wide-ranging Wireless Security Support
To secure the wireless communication, the WNRT-617G supports not only 64/128/152-Bit WEP, but also up-to-date encryptions including WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK with TKIP/AES, wireless MAC filtering and SSID broadcast control to consolidate the wireless network security and prevent unauthorized wireless connection.

Easily-secure Wireless Connection
In order to simplify security settings for home and SOHO network, the WNRT-617G supports Wi-Fi ProtectedSetup (WPS), which has two connections: PBC and PIN. By just pressing the WPS button or keying in the PIN code, the secure connection between the WNRT-617G and wireless clients will be built immediately, offering a convenient and fast method for users.
 
 
Advanced Firewall Security
To protect user’s network from external attacks, the WNRT-617G provides dual firewall mechanisms – NAT and SPI. The NAT function allows multiple users to have access to Internet via a single legal IP, and the SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall protects intranet PCs from unauthorized access and prevents possible DoS attacks from the Internet. As to firewall, the WNRT-617G provides flexible IP-based access control, schedulable MAC access control and URL block to prevent possible hacker attack.

Full-functioned Router
As a robust broadband router, the WNRT-617G supports various Internet connection protocols and auto detect function to establish Internet service when the ISPs use different connection types. It also provides Virtual Server and DMZ functions for LAN PC to act as an application server and offer certain service to the clients in the LAN. The WNRT-617G allows users to set up trigger ports of special applications and utilize Internet services smoothly. Moreover, IP-based ingress and egress bandwidth control optimizes time-critical applications such as VoIP or video conference not to be interrupted or lagged due to P2P file downloaded by other clients in the same network environment.

Easy to Set Up
Users can easily configure the wireless router according to the Quick Setup wizard on the web configuration page. Just click the wizard and set up step by step. You can easily get on the wireless network and enjoy high-speed Internet transmission in your home or office.
