The wireless router is a connection device used for connection in wireless local area networks. The function of the wireless router is to regulate the packet forwarding to the correction destination and as such it is similar in function to that of a normal router.
The advantage of the wireless router is that it improves mobility for portable computer users in the office or home. Each of the computers has a set of wireless transceivers which are plugged into the USB or PC card slot of the computer.
It often also acts as firewall for the various computers connected in the network since the IP addresses of the individual computers are hidden and the wireless router uses less computer resources than the more conventional firewall setups.
The main protocol for data exchange used is that of 802.11g allowing for transmission of up to 54 Mbps per second. There are several types of wireless Internet routers to select from. The choice is determined by budget, speed required and technology available. The older WiFi routers had a speed of 11 Mbps and with the latest technology it is now possible to get speeds of up to 300 Mbps.
NEDA offers Internet access and network connectivity also by means of the provision of wireless router technology. We pre-configure equipment that is needed for the wireless connectivity. In terms of WiFi, the router acts to integrate a wireless access point and the Ethernet switch as well as the router firmware for forwarding of packets.
It makes it possible to connect computers in a network whether Ethernet based or wireless based and forwards the packets to the required addresses as needed. It can be integrated with a web server.
With the wireless router it has become possible to connect several computers at for instance, an airport, at a corporate building, at home, indoors and outdoors.
