SAN DIEGO, Sept. 7, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Buffalo Technology, a global leader in the design, development and manufacturing of wired and wireless networking, storage and memory solutions, today announced the latest addition to its flagship line of routers. The Buffalo AirStation(tm) 125* High Speed Mode(tm) Wireless Cable/DSL Router with AOSS (WBR2-G54S) combines high-speed wireless with Buffalo's AirStation One-Touch Secure System (AOSS(tm)).
The latest addition to Buffalo's high-speed line of wireless solutions allows users to automatically set up a secure wireless network with the push of a button. The technology detects and configures other AOSS-enabled devices and seamlessly creates a secure connection.
