Netgear has launched the WNR1000 Wireless Router which is compatible with Wireless-N. This allows for better coverage/range, signal quality, and network speed than older Wireless-G routers. This performance boost can be seen especially when used in conjunction with Wireless-N devices.Netgear claims this device is secure, saves energy, and is "plug-n-play" such that no further intervention is required once it is configured. Its "Smart Wizard" is claimed to help in automatic detection and configuration of the router for most ISP (Internet uplink) connections. The included WPS feature that Netgear has labelled "Push ‘N’ Connect" can securely connect devices at the push of a button. Netgear says that its powerful internal antennae can help users surf the web, email, stream music, play on-line games, and make Internet phone calls.
