Netgear Announces Worldwide Availability of the Ultimate Home DSL Gateway

South East Asia - Netgear announced worldwide availability of the N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router (DGND3700), the Ultimate Home DSL Gateway. The N600 Home DSL gateway brings together in one convenient, power-packed device a high-speed ADLS2+ modem plus an improved version of NETGEAR’s acclaimed Ultimate Networking Machine wireless router (WNDR3700) to meet the demanding needs of today’s advanced home networks.

Speed is built into the N600 Home DSL Gateway - from the ground up. With the first dual-core processor in a home router, response time is lightning-fast – even when running the most intense applications simultaneously.

Wireless range and capacity are maximized with support for simultaneous 802.11n dual band networking at 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, providing two completely separate networks for data and video traffic to avoid network overcrowding and loss of data in transmission. The 5 GHz band in particular provides a less interference-prone channel suitable for streaming high-definition video and for networked gaming.

Intelligent quality of service lets consumers give priority to video streams, games and other rich-media applications for uninterrupted enjoyment, as well as giving priority to designated devices on the network.

The N600 Home DSL Gateway supports NETGEAR ReadySHARE technology through two USB ports, transforming standard external USB hard drives into shared storage for access by everyone on the home network. In addition, the N600 is DLNA certified, for streaming video or music from the external USB hard drive to any DLNA-complaint media player such as an Internet-enabled TV.

The N600 Home DSL Gateway is also future proof, with a separate gigabit Ethernet WAN port for connecting to either high-speed cable or fiber optic broadband modems. This gives consumers the option to keep using their same Ultimate Home DSL Gateway for cable or fiber Internet service without the need to reconfigure their home networks should they choose at some point to switch from their ADSL service.

And there’s more:

  • NETGEAR Live Parental Controls provide a centralized, flexible and reliable parental control solution for all the devices on the network, including Windows PCs, Macs, smartphones and tablets, giving children and teenagers a safe environment for online activities – with no subscription required!
  • Guest network support allows visitors to go online without having to be given the home network password and without gaining access to computers, printers, storage drives and other devices on the home network.
  • A broadband usage meter flags when data consumption is reaching monthly limits, avoiding costly overage fees for consumers with metered service plans.
  • Easy set up and control, with CD-less install, so the N600 can be configured by any computer on the network – and even from tablets, netbooks, and smartphones.

The NETGEAR N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router is compatible with all major DSL service providers and is a great value compared to separately buying or upgrading a DSL modem and wireless router.

Pricing and Availability

The NETGEAR N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router (DGND3700) is now available worldwide from major retailers – in stores and online – with a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) in the United States of $199.99.
