TEW-673GRU Wireless USB Routers are high performance wireless N Gigabit routers with simultaneous dual band technology. The routers support two USB ports to allow you share USB Storage in one port, and share USB printer on the other port - eliminating separate storage server and print server or dedicated always-on computer for print server. There are many benefits you can get with the computer networks; and couples of them are they allow you share one (or more) storage disk and one (or more) printer to be accessible by many users (computers) in the network. Typically you need to configure a computer (server) and configure it as the storage server to allow users on the network share the documents on the server. With a share printer on the network, you require a wired print server or wireless print server and configure it to allow all the users on the network get access to the printer. Traditionally you configure a dedicated always-on computer and configure it as the print server, attach a multifunction printer in the USB port of the computer and configure it to be accessible by users on the network. With TEW-673GRU Wireless USB routers, you can utilize the available two USB ports of the router and configure one port for print server and the other port for storage server (with the USB control utility). With this router, you can eliminate dedicated always-on computer for print server and storage server. Compared to other wireless routers in its class which are typically embedded with only one USB port (which allow you share storage or share printer in one time), TEW-673GRU offers you one step ahead of them by providing two USB ports to support both storage disk and print server in one time in a single router. Note: If you plan on connecting a multi-function printer to the USB port on the TEW-673GRU, firstly you need to install the printer drivers on your computer. Then shutdown the printer and disconnect the printer from your computer.

The simultaneous dual-band technology creates two separate 300Mbps wireless N networks (both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands) at the same time. The good thing is that you can monitor what is going on with your networks including the performance, the security, and other device information via a color LCD management interface. For the wired connections, TEW-673GRU wireless USB routers provide 4 x Gigabit Auto-MDIX Ethernet ports to allow you connect up to four computers with high-speed direct connection to the router.
