802.11 Standards-based Wireless Networking
The MBR814 router includes an 802.11 g-compliant wireless access point, providing continuous,
high-speed 10/100 Mbps access between your wireless and Ethernet devices. The access point
provides:
• 802.11 g Standards-based wireless networking at up to 100 Mbps.

• Support for the Wi-FI Protected Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK) encryption and 802.1x
authentication.

A Powerful, True Firewall
Unlike simple Internet sharing NAT routers, the MBR814 is a true firewall, using stateful packet
inspection to defend against hacker attacks. Its firewall features include:
• Denial of Service (DoS) protection
Automatically detects and thwarts Denial of Service (DoS) attacks such as Ping of Death,
SYN Flood, LAND Attack and IP Spoofing.
• Blocks unwanted traffic from the Internet to your LAN.
• Blocks access from your LAN to Internet locations or services that you specify as off-limits.
• Logs security incidents
The MBR814 will log security events such as blocked incoming traffic, port scans, attacks,
and administrator logins. You can configure the router to email the log to you at specified
intervals. You can also configure the router to send immediate alert messages to your email
address or email pager whenever a significant event occurs.
