Features and applications
The Gigaset SE366 WLAN's wide range of features make it ideal for a large number of
applications, e.g.:
u Internet access
The Gigaset SE366 WLAN gives several users access to the Internet when a DSL or
cable modem is connected.
– As many DSL providers set up Internet access via the
PPPoE protocol, the Gigaset
SE366 WLAN contains an integrated PPPoE Client , which means you no longer
need to set up this service on your PC yourself.
– Shared Internet access
If your Internet provider permits this, the Gigaset SE366 WLAN supports Internet
access for up to 252 users. In practice, multiple users in your network can surf the
Internet simultaneously using just one Internet access.
u IP TV streaming
The Gigaset SE366 WLAN allows the wireless transmission of IP TV
(Internet television) to your IP TV receiver.
u Setting up a local network
The Gigaset SE366 WLAN permits connections
– for four devices via
Ethernet ports with a transmission speed of 10 or 100 Mbps
(with automatic recognition).
– for up to 32 mobile terminals via a radio interface with a transmission speed of
up to 300 Mbps. It complies with the IEEE 802.11n standard (draft, see note
below) and can work with all products that satisfy the IEEE 802.11 n, 802.11g or
802.11 b standard.
Using a Gigaset SE366 WLAN makes it easy to set up a network at home or in small
offices. For example, users can exchange data or share resources in the network,
e.g. a file server or printer.
Note:
Please be aware, however, that video streaming may be disrupted depending on
the following factors:
– Removal of the wireless communication partner
– Building substance (walls, power supply lines and water pipes)
– Other sources of interference (other WLAN devices, Bluetooth,
microwave, ...).
Note:
Transmission standard IEEE 802.11n is still pending approval, which is likely
to be granted in early 2008. Your Gigaset SE366 WLAN hardware is ready
to comply with the new transmission standard. You might have to update
the software for your device once standard compliant software is available
(see page 84).
