Dual Band Technology
Traditionally, most wireless computing and other wireless devices used 2.4 Gigahertz (GHz). This meant that all wireless computing and network devices were using the same 2.4 GHz bandwidth. This can lead to interference and slower performance. Recently, network equipment manufacturers are now offering 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz range. The 5.0 GHz band is a relatively new, less used spectrum that is not as crowded. For certain applications like video or where you have many devices, you can split the load between the two bands. It’s like having two wires.
ReadySHARE USB Storage Access
Easy shared access from any computer in your home network to an external USB hard drive connected to your router. Simply plug your external USB storage device into the USB port on the router and any computer connected to your network will be able to access the data stored on the USB storage device.
DLNA Support
Play videos, photos and music stored on an attached USB hard drive to any DNLA connected TV, game console or media player such as an Xbox 360 or Playstation 3.
Netgear Live Parental Controls
Netgear Live Parental Controls, powered by OpenDNS, is a router-based Web filtering solution available on Netgear Wireless-N router and gateway products.
Total home Protection
Live Parental Controls protects all Internet-connected devices through the router. It not only protects computers, but also set-top box, iPhone, iPod, and gaming consoles. You no longer need to worry about phones and gaming consoles not being protected when kids use them in their own rooms. Even guest computers accessing the Internet through your network are protected.
Flexible Settings
You may have your own computer or you may be sharing a computer with other members in the family. Default and per-user settings allow customizable configurations for different computing arrangement and personalize the settings for each person. Per-time setting allows Internet access during scheduled time slots, to help manage work/play balance.
Minimal Software Installation
Installation requires a one-time installation of the Management Utility. Once Live Parental Controls are set up, the software runs in the background and does not protrude normal Internet usage.
