The Linksys WRT160N Router features an encrypted wireless signal designed to protect your Internet connection from outside intrusion. With a 4-point switch, it is faster yet compatible with the Wireless-G router and creates a stronger wireless signal by using multiple radios, reducing dead zones and traveling farther.

Really three devices in one 10 ounce box, the WRT160N is a wireless access point, a 4-point Ethernet connection and a router to link all systems together. The access point utilizes “Multiple In, Multiple Out” or MIMO technology, which are overlaid signals from several radios. Known as Wireless-N, it is more powerful than Wireless-G and –B systems, yet it is perfectly compatible with them. The technology allows the Linksys WRT160N Router to use twice as much radio band, giving you a stronger, wider-reaching signal, but it will sense other wireless devices in the nearby area. This “good neighbor” feature ensures it won’t hog all available wireless signals.

Using an SPI firewall and a secure 256-bit encryption system, your PC and Internet connection are protected from attack and from wireless roamers alike. This protection is a standard feature of the Linksys WRT160N Router and is easy to configure online.

Whether it’s streaming video, multiple-player games, voiceover IP telephony or other intensive apps, the Linksys WRT160N Router lets you run data streams simultaneously with no loss of speed. Without the need of excessive wiring, your Wireless-N router can run several high-speed Internet connections at once, all with industry-strength protection.

For less than $100, the Wireless-N router with secure access point and 4-point Ethernet connection can keep your network running at high speeds. Free yourself of the hassle of wires and slow response time of inferior devices. The Linksys WRT160N Router is an inexpensive and unobtrusive way to get the most out of your networked high-speed Internet connection while maintaining the security you require for your home or work-based PC setup.
