 |
Simplicity and ease of use: The Cisco RV180W router is easy to use and works right of the box; its intuitive web-based configuration tool (GUI) reduces setup time to minutes. |
 |
High-performance connectivity: Gigabit Ethernet on all ports for faster data transfer for bandwidth intensive applications. Wireless-N for greater throughout and coverage to those Wi-Fi-enabled devices |
 |
Secure remote access: Support for IP Security (IPsec) and Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) VPN helps enable small businesses to extend secure connectivity of their network to remote offices and users, using encryption and authentication technologies |
 |
Investment protection: This multifunction device can function as a firewall, access point, and bridge to provide flexible deployment options and investment protection as your needs change |
 |
Expand your network: In client bridge mode, small businesses can easily expand their networks by connecting their secure wireless connection to a second Ethernet network (at Gigabit Ethernet speed) without cabling or installation costs |
 |
IPv6-enabled: Native support for IPv6 allows customers to take advantage of future networking applications and operating systems, without an equipment upgrade |
 |
Quality of service (QoS): QoS prioritizes network traffic to keep critical network applications running at top performance for voice, video, and data applications |
 |
Secure guest access: Support for separate "virtual" networks allows you to set up highly secure wireless and wired guest access through captive portal or “Wi-Fi hotspots” |
 |
Interoperability: Tested to work with other Cisco networking products on the network such as a switch, camera, or a network-attached storage (NAS) device. You can also run the device in firewall mode, access point mode, or bridge mode |
 |
Peace of mind: The Cisco Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty protects all Cisco RV Series products for the life of the product |
