A Netgear wireless router offers a number of benefits to computer users. With a wireless router, your office can enjoy Internet sharing, firewall features and networking capabilities. Some wireless routers even act as multiple devices, meaning your Netgear wireless router may also act as an access point so employees have cable-free access to your network.

Wireless routers are able to encode all wireless transmissions to help protect your privacy and your data. They’re also easy to operate, allowing you to add additional hubs without networking software, so your office network is as large as it needs to be. The Internet makes it easy for you to find Netgear wireless router information. Ask your Netgear wireless router provider about:

1. A Wireless-N Netgear wireless router for wide coverage.

2. A RangeMax Netgear wireless router to connect even in dead zones.

3. A Wireless-G Netgear wireless router for standard compatibility.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Expand your range with a Wireless-N Netgear wireless router

Wireless-N technology allows you to connect at distances you might have previously thought were impossible. In fact, you actually enjoy a better speed advantage as you get further away. Wireless-N is great if you want to play computer games, stream video or enjoy Voice over IP technology.

I recommend: When looking for a Wireless-N Netgear wireless router, compare the Wireless-N Router and the Wireless-N Router with Built-In DSL Modem.

Connect in dead areas with a RangeMax Netgear wireless router

RangeMax technology helps fill in the gaps if there are dead zones in your wireless network. RangeMax technology is available in Wireless-G and Wireless-N technology, so you can find the device that's compatible with your current set up.

I recommend: If you need RangeMax Wireless-N technology, consider the RangeMax Dual Band Wireless-N Router or the RangeMax Wireless-N Gigabit Router. For Wireless-G technology, Netgear offers the RangeMax Wireless Router.

Rely on the standard: a Wireless-G Netgear wireless router

The standard for wireless is Wireless-G. It's about five times as fast as the old standard, Wireless-B, and Wireless-G is what you'll find at many of your favorite wireless hot spots. Even if you still have Wireless-B equipment, your Wireless-G Netgear wireless router is compatible.

I recommend: If you want a standard Wireless-G Netgear wireless router, consider the Open Source Wireless-G Router, the Wireless-G Router with Built-in DSL Modem, the 802.11g FLASH-OFDM Mobile Broadband Router and the 802.11g UMTS TD-CDMA Mobile Broadband Router.
