802.11g Wireless Networking
The WGT624 v3 wireless router includes an 802.11g wireless access point, providing continuous,
high-speed 108 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, 802.11b-only, or
802.11g and b modes, providing backwards compatibility with 802.11b devices or dedicating
the wireless network to the higher bandwidth 802.11g devices.

• WEP keys can be generated manually or by passphrase.
• WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access - Pre Shared Key) support. Support for
WPA data encryption which provides strong data encryption and authentication based on a
pre-shared key.
• 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.
A Powerful, True Firewall with Content Filtering
Unlike simple Internet sharing NAT routers, the WGT624 v3 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 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,
including Parental Controls provided by Trend Micro Home Network Security Services
(Microsoft Internet Explorer V 5.5 or higher with ActiveX support is required).
• Logs security incidents.
