Bell Canada and Nexland Offer WirelessBy Nexland in association with Bell Canada has unveiled WaveBase, an Internet gateway that wirelessly connects multiple computers to share a single high-speed Internet connection. This multi-port DSL router is compatible with Bell's 1.5Mbps or 3Mbps Business Internet services and is available to all Bell Business Internet High Speed subscribers. "Nexland's WaveBase product is ideal for small and medium-sized businesses because it increases mobility for workers within an office and allows companies to use a single high-speed connection to provide Internet access among multiple PCs," said Pat Tremaine, vice-president, Bell ISP. "A business can now connect employees' laptops or desktop computers to one high- speed Internet connection without installing any new wires." The WaveBase transmits data across a company's wireless LAN at up to 11Mbps and dynamically allocates bandwidth between computers so that one high- speed Internet connection can be successfully split between multiple computers. As an 802.11b compliant product, wireless transmission of data is protected using either 40 or 128 bit Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) password-protected encryption. The WaveBase also supports Network Address Translation (NAT) that provides built-in protection for all computers that access the Internet through it. The WaveBase enables businesses to create a wireless LAN (local area network) or maintain an existing wired LAN and can be configured to fit a company's changing user needs. Installation of the WaveBase can be done quickly by customers with an existing LAN or a Nexland-authorized technician can provide on-site set up for a variety of computer operating systems. Link: |
