Introduction
This chapter describes the features of the NETGEAR ProSafe Wireless 802.11g VPN Firewall
Model FVG318.
Key Features of the Wireless VPN Firewall
The ProSafe Wireless 802.11g VPN Firewall Model FVG318 with eight-port switch connects your
local area network (LAN) to the Internet through an external access device such as a cable modem
or DSL modem and provides 802.11b/g wireless LAN connectivity.
The FVG318 is a complete security solution that protects your network from attacks and
intrusions. Unlike simple Internet sharing firewalls that rely on Network Address Translation
(NAT) for security, the FVG318 uses stateful packet inspection for Denial of Service attack (DoS)
protection and intrusion detection. The FVG318 allows Internet access for up to 253 users. The
FVG318 wireless VPN firewall provides you with multiple Web content filtering options, plus
browsing activity reporting and instant alerts — both via e-mail. Parents and network
administrators can establish restricted access policies based on time-of-day, Web site addresses
and address keywords, and share high-speed cable/DSL Internet access for up to 253 personal
computers. In addition to NAT, the built-in firewall protects you from hackers.
With minimum setup, you can install and use the firewall within minutes.
The FVG318 wireless VPN firewall provides the following features:
802.11g and 802.11b standards-based wireless networking.
Wireless Multimedia (WMM) support.
Easy, Web-based setup for installation and management.
Front panel LEDs for easy monitoring of status and activity.
Content filtering and site blocking security.
Built-in eight-port 10/100 Mbps switch.
Ethernet connection to a WAN device, such as a cable modem or DSL modem.
Extensive protocol support.
Flash memory for firmware upgrade.
