Sweex Wireless ADSL Modem/Router
The Sweex Wireless ADSL 2/2+ Modem/Router Annex A is extremely suitable for intensive Internet use. Your Internet will be super-fast, because an ADSL 2/2+ connection gives you a maximum download speed of 24 Mbps. This means that viewing high-quality video images online, so-called streaming, is not a problem at all using the MO251UK.
Logging in at your provider is very simple thanks to the menu which appears during installation. The built-in 4-port switch subsequently enables you to create a wireless network for multiple users and share your Internet connection in no time at all.
This device offers multiple security options so that you are protected against unauthorised external use. This wireless modem/router is suitable for ADSL via an analogue telephone line and operates with both ADSL 2/2+ and regular ADSL.

*Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is an algorithm to secure IEEE 802.11 wireless networks. Wireless networks broadcast messages using radio, so are more susceptible to eavesdropping than wired networks. When introduced in 1999, WEP was intended to provide confidentiality comparable to that of a traditional wired network.
***Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) is a class of systems to secure wireless (Wi-Fi) computer networks. It was created in response to several serious weaknesses researchers had found in the previous system, Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). WPA implements the majority of the IEEE 802.11i standard, and was intended as an intermediate measure to take the place of WEP while 802.11i was prepared. WPA is specifically designed to also work with pre-WPA wireless network interface cards (through firmware upgrades [1]), but not necessarily with first generation wireless access points. WPA2 implements the full standard, but will not work with some older network cards.
