We've also included a Storage Link that lets you easily add gigabytes of storage space onto your network

using readily available USB 2.0 hard drives--or plug in a USB flash disk for a convenient way to access

your portable data files. The built-in Media Server streams music, video, and photos from the attached

storage device to any UPnP compatible media adapter. And you can get to your files from anywhere in

the world through the Internet.

The Access Point built into the Router uses a dual-band version of the very latest wireless networking

technology, Wireless-N (draft 802.11n). By overlaying the signals of multiple radios for each band,

Wireless-N's "Multiple In, Multiple Out" (MIMO) technology multiplies the effective data rate. Unlike

ordinary wireless networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections, MIMO actually uses

these reflections to increase the range and reduce "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area. The robust

signals travel farther, maintaining wireless connections much farther than standard Wireless-G.

With Wireless-N, the farther away you are, the more speed advantage you get. It works great with

standard Wireless-G, -A, and -B equipment, but when both ends of the wireless link are Wireless-N, the

router can increase the throughput even more by using twice as much radio band, yielding speeds much

faster than standard Wireless-G. But unlike other speed-enhanced technologies, Wireless-N can

dynamically enable this double-speed mode for Wireless-N devices, while still connecting to other

wireless devices at their respective fastest speeds. In congested areas, the "good neighbor" mode ensures

that the Router checks for other wireless devices in the area before gobbling up the radio band.

Since the Router can operate in both the 2.4 and 5 gigahertz radio bands at the same time, it effectively

doubles your available wireless bandwidth. For instance, you could set up your network to handle video

streaming on one radio band, and use the other band for simultaneous data transfer--avoiding any

interference or collisions that would degrade the video performance.

To help protect your data and privacy, the Router can encode all wireless transmissions with industrial-
