The object-based design used in SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall allows users to set firewall policy with ease. Object-based firewall is flexible and allows your network be safe. DoS/DDoS prevention and URL/Web content filter strengthen the security outside and control inside.

 

In addition to the primary ADSL interface, the Vigor2820 ISDN S0 Series let you have additional WAN port for Internet access. The additional WAN port is an Ethernet interface and you can connect it to a second ADSL modem or any other Ethernet-based Internet feed. This secondary WAN port can be used for WAN- backup or load balancing. In case of your primary ISP or ADSL line suffering temporary outage, WAN- backup offers you redundancy. As a result, the secondary Internet access will temporarily route Internet traffic. All traffic will be switched back when normal services is resumed to your primary ADSL line.

 

You still can use the second Ethernet WAN port as your primary/only Internet connection (through NAT function) once you do not have ADSL line or you are waiting for ADSL connection. You can use USB 3G access as an alternative connection for Internet backup. Before your ADSL or broadband access is available, the USB/3G access can be your Internet connection.

Vigor2820VSn is Wi-Fi certified and supports WMM (Wi-Fi multimedia). It can keep the priority of voice, video and audio applications in a Wi-Fi network. The bandwith allocated for video, and when traffic conditions flucturate or change, the video traffic will maintain its allocated bandwidth, whereas the remaining bandwidth is shared by non-priority traffic. While watching video, you are less likely to see slow action. WMM lowers priority of other network traffic which is not time-critical-such as large file downloading.
