Cisco’s AP enables hassle-free upgrade to dual band Wireless-N

MUMBAI, INDIA: Cisco has launched the new Linksys Wireless-N Access Point with Dual-Band (WAP610N) for the Indian market.

Fast, powerful and simple to install, the new Access Point upgrades your existing wired or wireless home network to high speed Dual Band Wireless-N.

Optimized to stream HD video across the home network, the WAP610N works on both wireless frequencies, 2.4 and 5 GHz, to provide more reliable streaming and less interference from other products, or your neighbour’s network.

The WAP610N is also ideal for SOHO applications. Wireless-N can deliver the necessary bandwidth you need for VoIP telephony, high volume data transfers or back-ups, web surfing and emailing - everything you need to do to be more productive at work in your home office.

The access point also comes with a Windows and Macintosh compatible set up wizard, designed to simplify set-up, giving users step-by-step instructions. The wizard will also prompt users to enable security settings, helping prevent network hijacking which can lead to bandwidth constraints and online fraud. With the integrated Wi-Fi Protected Setup, consumers can just push a button on the Access Point and on another device to automatically create a secure wireless connection.
