remote offices of larger organizations with new ADSL offering


SUNNYVALE, CA – September 27, 2005 - Quick Eagle Networks, Inc., a leading provider of intelligent WAN access solutions, today announced its new ADSL2+ routers. The DL700 ADSL2+ Router™ and DL710 ADSL2+ Router™ represent a cost-efficient “all-in-one” solution that comes with an integrated ADSL modem, full-scale routing capabilities, stateful inspection firewall, Ethernet switch, Quality of Service features, WLAN (802.11 g/b) access point, and built-in VPN functionality.

The DL700 ADSL2+ Router and the DL710 ADSL2+ Router are compliant with all ADSL standards (ADSL, ADSL2, ADSL2+, and RE ADSL), which enables customers to migrate to the newer standards once they become available without having to “forklift-upgrade” their existing equipment. The units come with an auto-detection feature, which tests the end-users ADSL and Internet connection to determine the connection method used by their ISP.

Features such as an 802.11g wireless access point, Quality of Service for traffic prioritization and bandwidth management, secure Virtual Private Network (VPN) capabilities with a powerful 3DES acceleration, stateful inspection firewall, and sophisticated management and diagnostic tools differentiate the DL700 and DL710 from residential ADSL equipment.

“Even though both residential and business users are taking advantage of the same access technology, their access device requirements are very different. Quick Eagle’s new DL700 ADSL2+ Router and DL710 ADSL2+ Router address these special requirements,” said Torsten George, chief marketing officer at Quick Eagle. “Both routers are designed specifically for the small business and remote office market and provide business-class functionality at an affordable price.”
