A router is a device that forwards data packets between computer networks, creating an overlay internetwork. A router is connected to two or more data lines from different networks. When a data packet comes in one of the lines, the router reads the address information in the packet to determine its ultimate destination. Then, using information in its routing table or routing policy, it directs the packet to the next network on its journey. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. A data packet is typically forwarded from one router to another through the networks that constitute the internetwork until it gets to its destination node.

ADSL analogue
Asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) is a type of digital subscriber line technology, a data communications technology that enables faster data transmission over copper telephone lines than a conventional voiceband modem can provide.
In computer networking, Gigabit Ethernet (GbE or 1 GigE) is a term describing various technologies for transmitting Ethernet frames at a rate of a gigabit per second (1,000,000,000 bits per second).
Describes the number of physically installed antennas.

IPSec
Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) is a technology protocol suite for securing Internet Protocol (IP) communications by authenticating and/or encrypting each IP packet of a communication session.
The Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a method for implementing virtual private networks. PPTP uses a control channel over TCP and a GRE tunnel operating to encapsulate PPP packets.

Quality of Service (QoS)

Quality of Service (QoS)
The quality of service (QoS) refers to several related aspects of telephony and computer networks that allow the transport of traffic with special requirements. In particular, much technology has been developed to allow computer networks to become as useful as telephone networks for audio conversations, as well as supporting new applications with even stricter service demands.
IEEE 802.11a-1999 or 802.11a, is an amendment to the IEEE 802.11 specification that added a higher throughput of up to 54 Mbit/s by using the 5 GHz band.
802.11b has a maximum raw data rate of 11 Mbit/s and uses the same media access method defined in the original standard. 802.11b products appeared on the market in early 2000, since 802.11b is a direct extension of the modulation technique defined in the original standard. The dramatic increase in throughput of 802.11b (compared to the original standard) along with simultaneous substantial price reductions led to the rapid acceptance of 802.11b as the definitive wireless LAN technology.
This works in the 2.4 GHz band (like 802.11b) but operates at a maximum raw data rate of 54 Mbit/s, or about 19 Mbit/s net throughput. 802.11g hardware is fully backwards compatible with 802.11b hardware.

802.11n
802.11n is a proposed amendment which improves upon the previous 802.11 standards by adding multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) and many other newer features. Though there are already many products on the market based on Draft 2.0 of this proposal, the TGn workgroup is not expected to finalize the amendment until November 2008.

Wi-Fi encryption
WPA-PSK

WPA-PSK
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a certification program administered by the Wi-Fi Alliance to indicate compliance with the security protocol created by the Wi-Fi Alliance to secure wireless computer networks. This protocol was created in response to several serious weaknesses researchers had found in the previous system, Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). PSK means that it is only for Pre-Shared-Key mode
,
WPA2-PSK
i
WPA2-PSK
The advanced protocol, certified through Wi-Fi Alliance's WPA2 program, implements the mandatory elements of 802.11i. In particular, it introduces a new AES-based algorithm, CCMP, that is considered fully secure. From March 13, 2006, WPA2 certification is mandatory for all new devices wishing to be certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance as "Wi-Fi CERTIFIED." PSK means that it is only for Pre-Shared-Key mode.
Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus standard to interface devices. USB was designed to allow many peripherals to be connected using a single standardized interface socket and to improve the plug-and-play capabilities by allowing devices to be connected and disconnected without rebooting the computer (hot swapping). Other convenient features include providing power to low-consumption devices without the need for an external power supply and allowing many devices to be used without requiring manufacturer specific, individual device drivers to be installed. The Mini-B, Micro-A, Micro-B , and Micro-AB connectors are used for smaller devices such as PDAs, mobile phones or digital cameras. The Standard-A plug is approximately 4 by 12 mm, the Standard-B approximately 7 by 8 mm, and the Micro-A and Micro-B plugs approximately 2 by 7 mm.

Eine Schwierigkeit war, vor dem Kauf herauszufinden, ob eine Wandmontage möglich ist: es ist möglich, dazu befinden sich zwei Keyholes am Gehäuseboden im Abstand von 100mm (danke Netgear für das runde Mass). Zwei Spax-Schrauben, schon hält der ADSL-Router gut an der Wand dank seines Gewichts von 750g. Das notwendige Material ist dabei (DSL-Filter, Phone-Kabel, Ethernet-Kabel), ausser einem CH-auf-RJ11 Adapter. Ein paar Velcros gegen den Kabelsalat, Router mittels Ethernet an den PC verbunden, power on, und nach 1-2min. möchte die Kiste die Zugangsdaten haben. Nach Eingabe des Username/PW des eigenen Providers (Sunrise) macht der Nighthawk sämtliche Einstellung selbst (!) - da staunt der Laie. Multiplexing, encapsulation, DHCP-Server, das ganze Zeug: es stimmt und es läuft, und updaten lässt er sich auf Knopfdruck. Beim alten Linksys von anno 2006 brauchte ich noch Tage , bis alle Einstellungen stimmten. Der Nighthawk hat sich bisher nicht aufgehängt, Neustarts waren bisher nicht erforderlich (ansonsten werde ich ein update posten). Die Router-Einstellungen erfolgen passwortgeschützt über den Browser und sind logisch aufgebaut, dort lassen sich z.B. eventuell vergessene WLAN-Passwörter wieder finden oder ändern, Internet-Nanny-Filter einbauen etc. Ganz feudal lässt sich ein Gäste-WLAN einrichten, die Bandbreite lässt sich ggf. begrenzen, und die WLAN-Zugangsdaten am Nachttisch, das schätzen Gäste heutzutage. Der OOKLA-Speedtest mit einem nicht mehr jungen Sony Ion (WLAN 802.11n) zeigt mir an: 9.31Mbps down und 0.79Mbps up, das kann aber auch an meinem Zugang liegen. Youtube-Videos laufen jedenfalls flüssig, auch im Keller unten, wohin eine Verbindung mit Netgear Powerline PL/W 1000 installiert ist. Die vielen info-LED's, die ein dunkles Zimmer bereits fahl ausleuchten, lassen sich zum Glück abschalten. Das Usermanual lässt sich als PDF downloaden, ist verständlich geschrieben und hat stolze 313 Seiten - und ich gebe zu es nur teilweise gelesen zu haben.…more
