Preliminary Manual for the 108 Mbps Wireless Media Router WGT634U USB Storage Device for File Sharing The 802.11g-compliant WGT634U is a secure, easy-to-use wireless networking solution that takes home networking to the next level. The fast wireless speeds and enhanced range enable the WGT634U to stream video to distances of more than 200 feet. Delivering data transfer speeds that are double that of 802.11g equipment, the WGT634U Super Wireless Media Router provides multiple simultaneous users with high-speed, extended range wireless connectivity to support the long-range wireless data transfer. In addition, the integration of a USB 2.0-compliant interface makes the WGT634U the industry's first home networking product to enable the connection of an external storage device, such as a high-capacity disk drive or other USB memory device, for centralized network backup or storage and sharing of files and multimedia content. DMZ Support DMZ stands for Demilitarized Zone. This feature allows one IP Address to be exposed to the Internet. DMZ allows only one computer to be exposed when multiple TCP/IP ports need to be open. If you want to use DMZ, it is recommended that you set up a computer with a static IP. When DMZ is used, all specific requests are forwarded to the DMZ host. The exposed user's computer does not share the public IP with the router. 802.11g Wireless Networking The WGT634U Wireless Media Router includes an 802.11g wireless access point, providing continuous, high-speed 54 Mbps access between your wireless and Ethernet devices. The access point provides: • 802.11g wireless networking at up to 108 Mbps. • 802.11g wireless networking, with the ability to operate in 802.11g-only, 802.11-turbo-g-only, or 802.11b+g modes, providing backwards compatibility with 802.11b devices or dedicating the wireless network to the higher bandwidth 802.11g devices. • 64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption security. • WEP keys can be generated manually or by passphrase. • Wireless access can be restricted by MAC address. • Wireless network name broadcast can be turned off so that only devices that have the network name (SSID) can connect.

DMZ Support
DMZ stands for Demilitarized Zone. This feature allows one IP Address to be exposed to the
Internet. DMZ allows only one computer to be exposed when multiple TCP/IP ports need to be
open. If you want to use DMZ, it is recommended that you set up a computer with a static IP.
When DMZ is used, all specific requests are forwarded to the DMZ host. The exposed user’s
computer does not share the public IP with the router.

802.11g wireless networking, with the ability to operate in 802.11g-only, 802.11-turbo-g-only,
or 802.11b+g modes, providing backwards compatibility with 802.11b devices or dedicating
the wireless network to the higher bandwidth 802.11g devices.
64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption security.
WEP keys can be generated manually or by passphrase.
Wireless access can be restricted by MAC address.
Wireless network name broadcast can be turned off so that only devices that have the network
name (SSID) can connect.
