ZyXEL's new offering

With the most advanced 802.11n wireless technology and transmission speeds of up to 300 Mbps, the NBG-419N v2 Wireless N home router ensures stability and reliability of wireless transmission – both critical for wireless streaming of multimedia contents. The QoS (Quality of Service) feature allows home users to enjoy high-performance multimedia streaming wirelessly, while browsing music and video sites on the Internet or online gaming anywhere in the house. The NetUSB support is a major differentiator on the second version of NBG-419N, as it allows users to share USB devices over the home network.

With the built-in USB port, the NBG-419N v2 can share printers or USB storage devices, as if the devices were directly connected to a PC without messy cables. With complete wireless freedom, family members can access, share and print files stored in the USB devices over the wireless network freely and easily. The NBG-419N v2 adopts a stylish housing design with new aesthetics, similar to other recent ZyXEL models. In an effort to support green environment and ZyXEL’s commitment, three green features – wireless on/off button, wireless scheduling and wireless output management are organically built into the ZyXEL wireless home routers. The router also has an “Easy Mode” for function navigation and basic setup tasks to simplify system configuration. Equipped with a one-click Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) button, the NBG-419N v2 lets you establish a secure wireless network within seconds. The router is designed quite well and features a nice little pattern on the top, so it won’t look to out of place in your living room.
