Linksys Simplifies Wireless Network Setup and Security
Linksys®, a Division of Cisco Systems, Inc., the recognized leading provider of VoIP, wireless and networking hardware for the consumer, Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) and small business markets, today announced it has begun shipping products with SecureEasySetup (SES) technology. SES enables users to set up and add security to their wireless networks with a push of a button. Linksys is adding the SES feature to a number of products in its line of Wireless-G and Wireless-G with SpeedBooster products at no extra cost.
(I-Newswire) - SES Technology SecureEasySetup enables consumers to effortlessly establish their wireless networks and activate Wi-Fi Protected Access™ ( WPA ) security by simply pushing one button on the router and one button on the wireless device they want to attach to the network.. Once the feature is activated, SES creates a secured, private connection between devices, automatically configures the network's Service Set Identifier ( SSID ), and enables WPA security features. Automatic configuration eliminates the manual passphrase, or key, entry required by traditional setup for the enabling of WPA. Customers are no longer required to have experience configuring a network to create a wireless network, they can now simply push buttons to go wireless.
“Traditionally, installation of a wireless network with security features has been a complicated and time-consuming task. Linksys is simplifying the process, making it much easier to create and extend a wireless network with security,” said Malachy Moynihan, Linksys vice president of engineering and product marketing. “We hope technology such as SecureEasySetup is adopted as a standard used by all Wi-Fi equipment manufacturers, so any networked device can be added simply to a home a network.”
For customers that currently have any of the following products, the SES feature can be added as a software button at no charge by simply downloading firmware from the Linksys website at: www.linksys.com/download .
