Vigor 2910 Series Router Firewall
The Vigor 2910 Series is a router firewall provides a great balance of security, VPN, routing and optional VoIP/Wireless facilities. Content filtering helps protect against inappropriate web usage or time wasting using keyword matching.

Optional 3G Cellular data increases the product's flexibility too, allowing you to make use of cellular networks for broadband-like HSDPA networks without needing a fixed line. This can be used for backup or your primary Internet feed. Alternatively, a switchable Ethernet port can be used as a secondary WAN port, to a second broadband connection, for example.

The wireless LAN equipped models provide 802.11g connectivity for your laptops or other wirelessly connected PCs. The Vigor 2910 supports several indepent levels of wireless security to protect your data. In addition, WDS mode can be used to provide repeating or bridging to a secondary router to increase wireless coverage or set up a secondary remote site (within range) where cables cannot be practically run.

The Vigor 2910's VPN facilities provide up to 16 simultaneous tunnels. These tunnels can be encrypted and authenticated with indistry standard methods, making your data secure as it passes over the public Internet. VPNs are ideal for both remote office linking or teleworker connections to access brand or head office resources.

3G Cellular Data Features
The Vigor 2910's USB port can host a compatible 3G modem or cellphone for access to the cellular network for full Internet Access. Most UK networks now provide high speed HSDPA data connections at up to 3.6Mb/s download speed. The 3G connection can be used as your primary/only Internet access, or as backup to your main ADSL line connection. This is not only ideal for homes or offices which don't want to pay fixed line + broadband rental, but also for temporary locations, or those to where fixed lines aren't available.

With the Wireless LAN equipped models of the Vigor 2910 series, your local users can be connected wirelessly to the router, so instant free 'hotspots' can be deployed quickly and easily. Mains power is required for the router's PSU, but this could be from a mobile generator or equivalent so you need to plan for this.

Wireless LAN Features
The Vigor 2910 Series routers with built-in Wireless LAN allow you to use your wireless equipped computers or laptops wirelessly, without needing a cable back to the router; this provides convenience and mobility in your home or office. By adding an additional Vigor 2700 wireless model, you can expand the wireless range using WDS (in repeater mode) and for increasing range potential, DrayTek have a range of directional aerials.

Secondary WAN Port
The primary 'WAN' interface (the connection to the outside world) is 10/100BaseT Ethernet. This can connect to any Ethernet based router IP or Internet feed which might typically be fed via Leased Line, cable modem, ADSL, Satellite system - anything which is then terminated in Ethernet.

In addition, one of the LAN Ethernet ports can be selected as a secondary WAN (Internet) Interface. The second interface can be used as the primary interface, backup failover for the primary WAN port, load balancing or just for increased total bandwidth. This allows you to use two Internet feeds simulataneously to provide higher total capacity, or rule-based routing over two feeds (load balancing). If you do not have a second WAN feed, you can use the 2nd WAN port as a regular LAN port instead.
