Chapter 1:

Product Overview

Thank you for choosing the Dual-Band Wireless-N Gigabit

Router with Storage Link. The Router lets you access the

Internet via a wireless connection or through one of its

four switched ports. With the built-in storage link, you can

easily add gigabytes of storage space onto your network

using USB 2.0 hard drives, or plug in a USB flash disk 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.

Configuring the Router is easy using the provided browser-

based utility.
