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.
Voice over IP
The Vigor2910 'V' models provide twin phone ports for VoIP (Voice-over-IP). VoIP enables you to use your existing broadband capacity to carry regular voice calls to suitably equipped remote sites, for example another Vigor VoIP enabled router or to any other compatible hardware/software products, worldwide. The Vigor2910 supports the industry strandar 'SIP' system for compatibility with other vendors' produdcts.
The calls between the two sites in the example above are, of course, free of charge because they are making use of your existing always-on ADSL connection, but cost isn't the only advantage; using VOIP means that you have additional call capacity in your home or office, without tying up your regular phone line. Using a VoIP-PSTN gateway service, such as DrayTEL you can also fully integrate with the PSTN, making and receiving calls to and from any regular phone number, worldwide.
