The NETGEAR WG302 ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point provides a secure and reliable wireless network with enterprise-level functionality at a mid-market price. The WG302 makes it easy to create a secure wireless access point. View larger. Fast and Secure Fully compatible with the 802.11g wireless standard at 54 Mbps, with an optional turbo mode for a speedy 108 Mbps when used with supported NETGEAR adapters, the WG302 offers a network connection that is fast and widely compatible. As 802.11g is backwards compatible with 802.11b, you needn't worry about your computers with older network cards not working. Your data is secure as the WG302 complies with industry security standards for user authorization and wireless data encryption. WPA and 802.1x is supported for mutual authentication so only legitimate clients can associate with RADIUS servers. Also supported is MAC address authentication with a 256-user Access Control List and VPN pass-through. Specially designed for Voice Over IP With support for SpectraLink voice priority, the access point will automatically provide priority mechanisms on the wireless network for any voice calls. This provides businesses with a simple and practical solution for combining voice and data over one line. Bridge and Repeater Mode In addition to functioning as an access point, the access point can also be used as a bridge and as a repeater. Used as a bridge, the device allows you to connect two LANS wirelessly; as a repeater, your wireless signal's range is extended so even the remote corners of your home or office can be covered. Smart Design and Easy Setup Thanks to support for IEEE 802.3af-based Power over Ethernet (PoE), the need for extra cables is eliminated and the access point doesn't have to be put near a power outlet. Simple Network Management Protocol is supported, making the device compatible with SNMP-based network management software. It supports all popular 802.1x port-based authentication protocols and administrators can remotely configure and monitor multiple WG302s via FTP. NETGEAR's Smart Wizard browser-based interface makes setup a snap. The access point comes with two detachable antennas; optional accessories can further extend wireless capacity and range. The NETGEAR WG302 ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point is backed by a 3-year warranty.

Netgear's ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point WG302 delivers the secure, reliable, high performance wireless local area networks (WLANs) that today's mobile workforce demands. This powerful device provides the ultimate in industry standard access to corporate network resources, email and the Internet. Fully compatible with IEEE 802.11g, (2.4 GHz), it can also be set for dynamic 108 Mbps 802.11g. With its robust security measures, simplified management and configuration, extended range, integrated IEEE 802.3af power over Ethernet (PoE), and Wi-Fi certification, the WG302 brings standards-based enterprise-level functionality at a mid-market price. With Propagate Networks' AutoCell RF management technology, RF patterns are monitored and automatically tuned to balance signals across the network, thus minimizing channel interference and optimizing WLAN performance. The AutoCell-enabled WG302 provides dynamic transmit power control, automatic channel selection and load balancing. The WG302 complies with industry security standards for wireless data encryption, and user authorization. It is 802.11i ready and WPA provides enhanced, interoperable wireless networking security. WPA and 802.1x support enables strong mutual authentication to ensure that only legitimate clients associate with corporate RADIUS servers. Plus, the WG302 supports MAC address authentication with 256- user Access Control List (ACL) and VPN pass-through. Integrated IEEE 802.3af-based Power over Ethernet support eliminates extra cables and the need to locate near a power outlet, since the access point is powered over the Ethernet cable. The WG302 supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) MIB I, MIB II, and 802.11 MIB using SNMP-based network management software, such as HP OpenView. Plus, it supports all popular 802.1x port-based authentication protocols, including Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) Transport Layer Security (TLS), Protected EAP (PEAP), and Tunneled TLS (TTLS). The console port facilitates local configuration and monitoring and users can remotely configure, update, and monitor multiple WG302's simultaneously via FTP. The WG302 is cost effective, simple to install and use. It is plenum rated - appropriate for placement above drop-down ceilings and under raised floors. The WG302 is equipped with convenient Smart Wizard browser-based interface and is fitted with two external, detachable 5 dBi antennas.

Most helpful customer reviews 16 of 18 people found the following review helpful. Poor setup, terrible support, good range By J. Macfarlane I purchased 3 of these APs with the expectation to replace 3 Cisco "b" APs and drop in. The setup used Radius for authentication which is claimed to be supported in both the online info and docs. After config (the web UI constantly has problems with cookies and forced you to re-login) the system would work. One quark was the IP address field for the radius server wouldn't accept more than one character in the forms. Up and running. However, upon reboot, the WG302 loses it Radius info and then cannot authenticate a client again. SHOWSTOPPER. After logging this with Netgear support - their response is this is an unsupported config and requires premium support. While this would be fine if it was a config issue, it's not ok given they claim support for these features and this was a required feature for purchase. They give no further support now. I would HIGHLY recommend against the extra cost of this unit given it's buggy and has poor support. Config is difficult (I had to learn how to use the command line config), the upgrades are not well documented (they imply you have to import some obscure file with tftp - you don't but...), however the unit does have good range and works (No RADIUS of course) in a basic config. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. They work well for me By Veijo N. Jones I have six of these installed in my main office and three outdoors to connect several buildings. I'm not sure why the other reviews are so negative. On the indoor six units I'm running RADIUS authentication on a Windows 2003 network and it works flawlessly. I've had to adjust the power output for each unit so they don't over-reach. Users can roam the building and stay connected with no problems. The outdoor units are running in AP/Bridge mode and have been trouble-free. I'm not convinced the external 9db antenna really adds much more range. Be sure you're using the latest firmware which resolves a DHCP error. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Needs a repeater to work well By Robert Solomon I bought this access point to provide wireless coverage to a 2 story colonial house. Even with a Netgear ANT24D18 Ant 18DBI Patch Panel attached, it provided less coverage than what I was using before, a Netgear WPN802 v1. What I am using now is this WG302 w/ ANT24D18 patch panel as the access point, and the WPN802 as a repeater. This is working well. See all 14 customer reviews...
