If you need a wireless broadband network at any place or any time - the
KR1 Mobile Router is your all-in-one solution. The KR1 Mobile Router
utilizes 1xEV-DO as the WAN backhaul and supports many different
computers and devices - for high speed wireless data transfer. No more
drooling around with conventional dial-up, now you are ready to tackle
full workload and multi-task.
The KR1 mobile router is the best solution for traveling professionals:
sales people, consultants, dispatchers, and more. The KR1 Mobile Router
can easily be compared to the broadband service you have hooked up at
your home. Download and upload speeds are easily comparable to those of
Comcast High-Speed Internet Cable and SBC DSL service.
The Kyocera KR1 mobile router has the ability to connect many different
computers directly to the Web, using only one broadband EV-DO PC card.
The KR1 is essentially a command hub, talking to other local computers
over the 802.11b/g wireless connection, as well as to the web with the
1xEV-DO card. Due to the integrated RJ45 ports, you will not find the
need to drag an additional router with you to connect multiple machines
to the network since all is included with this device. Even when you do
run out of ports, you still have the option of establishing a
connection via the embedded WiFi within the device.
The Kyocera KR1 will also let your home PC use your notebook's access
card. Simply plug it in and you are ready to go, it's easy as 1-2-3.
The KR1 will also allow you to make a Wi-Fi hotspot anywhere - an
ability that's very handy if other regular broadband connections aren't
available. Due to certain restrictions within some networks, it is to
expect that the more devices attempt to share the broadband connection,
rather unsatisfactory and slow downstream and upstream rates are to be
expected. It is to note that even though this is a marvelous product
introduced to you by Kyocera, it has its limitations.
The Kyocera KR1 also boasts advanced firewall and other security
controls. The configuration is pretty simple and user friendly, and set
up is a breeze. The KR1 also features integrated 10/100 mbps switch,
along with four different Ethernet ports so in case you are stuck
without wireless connection possibilities the ports will accommodate
your machine.
There's also an easy access control to manage a variety of users. The
multiple users of the KR1 have the ability to share different high
speed connections - with speeds of up to 2.4 MB per second - with
typical speeds coming in at 400-700+ Kb per second. All this depends on
the carrier you choose and speeds may also depend on location and
overall reception and wireless coverage.
