The Benefits of Netgenie As A Secure Home Wi-Fi Network Solution

The Benefits Of Netgenie As A Secure Home Wi-Fi Network Solution

These days, there are very few homes without Internet access whether it is through a laptop or a personal computer.  In homes the world over where there are children, it is an absolute certainty that, from an early age, they will demand and expect the latest Wi-fi network-enabled devices, whether they are for playing on, communicating  through or as an aid to schoolwork.  These devices are likely to include game consoles, smart phones, iPads and laptops, to name just some.  And, parents feel obliged to provide them.  However, the two main concerns that face many parents are those of protecting their own Internet facilities from viruses or hacker attacks and that of protecting their offspring from harmful and age-sensitive Internet material.  The Netgenie HOME wireless router addresses these worries by providing a home security solution that is easy to install and administer, regardless of a parent’s level of technical knowledge or proficiency.

How Netgenie Protects Against Malicious Security Attacks

Even for personal use, compromised or lost data can be costly.  The loss of files or the malicious abuse of password or other identity information can cause enormous inconvenience as can the process of restoring your computer to a safe state.  So, preventative action is the best option and the Netgenie HOME wireless router offers a secure home Wi-fi that enables you and your family to enjoy a safe user experience at all times.  Netgenie HOME is provided as a web based Graphical User Interface (GUI) and it very easy to configure.  Once installed, the Netgenie HOME pre-configured security settings will be activated as soon as you switch on any connected device.  Amongst its most valuable features, Netgenie HOME offers a firewall, in-built anti-virus protection and an intrusion prevention system.  Additionally, you can plug your USB broadband or 3G modem into your Netgenie router, thus facilitating multiple users and multiple devices simultaneously.

How Netgenie Provides Parental Control

Usually, of even more concern to parents than their own Internet security is that of their children.  The major concerns are that those of unsuitable ages can gain access to pornographic, violent or adult material.  Netgenie HOME provides smart parental controls that allows parents or guardians to easily block access to suspect Internet content over many devices such as PC’s laptops, smart phones or gaming consoles.  Furthermore, the process of setting age-appropriate access is made easy because Netgenie HOME’s parental control is delivered with a pre-set list of websites and applications that removes the inconvenience of entering site names and addresses manually.   And, its schedule-based feature allows parents to control the amount of time their children spend chatting on social networking sites such as Facebook, Skype, Gmail and other applications.    Another highly useful parental feature of Netgenie is its reporting facility.  This allows parents to produce real-time reports on applications used, websites accessed and any attempts by minors to access blocked websites.

The fact that Netgenie also provides reports on virus attacks and attempted intrusions ensures that the home user is always aware of the security status of their network.  But, perhaps, it is its age-sensitive controls that gives parents the greatest peace of mind of all
