DI-624S User's Manual Introduction Introduction The D-Link AirPlus Xtreme GTM DI-624S High-Speed Wireless Storage Router is an 802.11g high-performance, wireless router that supports high-speed wireless networking at home, at work or in public places. Unlike most routers, the DI-624S provides data transfers at up to 108 Mbps (compared to the standard 54Mbps) when used with other D-Link AirPlus Xtreme GTM products. The 802.11g standard is backwards compatible with 802.11b products. This means that you do not need to change your entire network to maintain connectivity. You may sacrifice some of 802.11g's speed when you mix 802.11b and 802.11g devices, but you will not lose the ability to communicate when you incorporate the 802.11g standard into your 802.11b network. You may choose to slowly change your network by gradually replacing the 802.11b devices with 802.11g devices . For home users that will not incorporate a RADIUS server in their network, the security for the DI-624S, used in conjunction with other 802.11g products, will still be much stronger than ever before. Utilizing the Pre Shared Key mode of WPA, the DI-624S will obtain a new security key every time it connects to the 802.11g network. You only need to input your encryption information once in the configuration menu. No longer will you have to manually input a new WEP key frequently to ensure security, with the DI-624S, you will automatically receive a new key every time you connect, vastly increasing the safety of your communications.
