Nexland, Inc. Announces New Line of Wireless and Ethernet Broadband Routers Designed for Home Offices, Small-to-Medium Businesses And Enterprise Remote
Locations
MIAMI, March 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Nexland, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: XLND)
supplier of Internet Security and Sharing Devices, announced today a new line of Firewall and VPN (Virtual Private Network) compatible routers targeting
substantially all broadband users, from the home consumer to the corporate enterprise.
The new products include a SOHO (Small Office Home Office) model that is
optimized for gaming and ease-of-use, a Professional Series targeting corporate remote locations and work-at-home employees, and a Wireless Router
that enables multiple users to securely connect to the Internet, without wires, simultaneously. All of the products incorporate Nexland's patent
pending VPN pass-through technology.
"Our 2001 line of products was developed to meet the evolving needs of DSL
and cable home users, small businesses, telecommuters and enterprises. We have increased the speed, memory and functionality and have added an
always-on backup feature. We feel our new line of products offers a full range of
Internet users low-cost and fully functional options for Internet security and sharing," said Greg Levine, Nexland's President and CEO.
Nexland's devices allow Virtual Private Networking traffic to "pass-
through" them, while maintaining firewall security. Virtual Private Networks allow companies to create secure connections using the Internet, offering a
convenient way to connect not only mobile workers, but also branch offices and
partners to their corporate computer systems. Previously, many workers on the
road had to dial into corporate networks with a special call-in number or over an expensive leased telephone line. With Virtual Private Networks, those same
workers can securely log into their network over the Internet, reducing the need for expensive calls.
