Hassle Free Upgrade To Dual Band Wireless-N With Cisco’s New Access Point

Published Dec 20, 2009

Fast, powerful and simple to install, the new Linksys by Cisco access point (WAP610N) upgrades your existing wired or wireless network to high speed Dual Band Wireless-N. Optimised 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 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 wireless connection between them that is more secure.

Addressing the rise in entertainment devices connected to home networks, the WAP610N offers optimised HD Video streaming, as well as an upgrade to your network, all encompassed in to a sleek, stylish design, which wouldn’t look out of place in your home.”
