    Product Description

    The X6 Model 5690 provides an extensive range of networking and Internet access features in a surprisingly affordable product. Advanced security features protect sensitive data in the home or office. Setup and management are extraordinarily easy, and wireless connections are made with superior range and speed. Both ADSL and ADSL 2/2+ protocols are supported and automatically negotiated to ensure easy installation and a long useful life for the product. An Installation Wizard makes setup a snap, with an auto configuration option that will automatically configure the DSL settings used by your service provider. Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) provides easy Local Area Networking configuration and operation.

    The Model 5690 makes it easy to provide multiple levels of guaranteed upstream bandwidth for prioritized devices. One or more physical ports on the X6 is designated as the source for prioritized traffic. A gaming adapter, Voice over IP telephone adapter or other device plugged into those ports is then provided with the guaranteed upstream bandwidth selected by the user. The 802.11g wireless access point provides flexible networking with freedom to roam. With Zoom 125 Speed Booster, wireless data rates can reach 125Mbps.

    The Model 5690 is also completely compatible with 802.11g from other manufacturers operating at 54Mbps. Unlike other wireless access points, it can support concurrent connections to both 802.11(b) and (g) devices without compromising the data rate of the higher speed devices. Wireless security meets Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA and WPA2) standards as well as Wired Equivalency Protection (WEP). Other advanced wireless features include Wireless Distribution. System (WDS) to support wireless repeaters/range extenders, and Wireless Multimedia Extensions (WME) to provide Quality of Service (QoS) for Voice over IP and other applications.

    • QoS (Quality of Service) - prevents signal starve and improves on-line gaming with PC or any next generation console
    • Built-in full rate ADSL Modem
    • ADSL2/2+ with both old and new ADSL connections
    • 802.11g Wireless Access Point
    • High-performance antennas for superior wireless range
    • Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and Wired Equivalency Protection (WEP)
    • Advanced Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) Firewall Packet filtering, Denial of Service and Port Scan detection and prevention
    • Built-in 10/100 four port Ethernet switch
    • Router provides access for up to 253 concurrent users
    • Compleat with Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
    • Supports multiple VPN (Virtual Private Network) pass-through
    • Supports Annex M for faster upload speeds
    • Supports TR-069 for remote management capability
    • All required cables supplied including two ADSL filters
    • Vista Compatible
    • Two year warranty

    Please note: networking components such as switches, routers and wireless devices require that speeds & standards be consistent throughout the network to gain optimum performance. To avoid compatibility clashes or for advice, please contact us on solutions@ebuyer.com.

    Amazing product

    operating system:Windows XP

    I got this product to replace a Linksys WAG354G router. Actually i had 2 of these routers. The first one died after 3 weeks of use while its performance was average. Ebuyer replaced that immediatelly but unfortunately the second died after 2 weeks whithout any obvious reason, i just powered it off but it never worked after that. I didnt lose my faith in Lynksys products so i demanded again a replacement from Ebuyer which was happy to provide me a new one. To my good luck they didnt have any of the Linksys in stock so i had to chose another product. After a lot of consideration i end up in this Zoom product. To be honest this thing works great. The wireless coverage as well as the signal strength are unbelievable. Even at the back room of my house i get a solid 54mbs in my laptop while i was getting a 12-24 with the Linksys. Moreover it is i think faster while the web utility is both for simple and advanced users and has everything you can think of. The setup was so easy that i had 3 laptops connected in 5 minutes. Really easy and the device looks quite reliable never stalling or hanging. I am very pleased with that product so far (2 weeks of use) and i rate 5 stars. I really want to thank Ebuyer as these people are really professinals and helpfull.
    By the way i really wonder why there are no posts about X6 as it is a great deal and a superb product.
    Conclusion
    Signal + coverage: 5 stars
    Internet speed: 5 Stars
    Setup: 5 stars
    EXEPTIONAL PRODUCT

    Fantastic quaility as ever from Zoom
    review by:Dave Acford rating:
    customer rating
    operating system:Windows XP

    Purchased one of these to replace a Zoom-X4 ADSL/router/firewall and a Linksys 54G Access point. I need the space and wanted just one account access to configure. Well as with my previous Zoom product, set-up was a 5mins job with the GUI. Wireless set-up was just as easy, takes longer as more to configure depending on what level of security you need+how many PC’s Laptops you are connecting to it. I run it in mixed mode with 2 laptops plus an IPAQ’s/PSP/PS2/Nintendo DS connecting via wireless and 3 other wired PC’s on the LAN plugged into the back of the unit. It just sits there and does its job without any dramas. Just like my previous Zoom-X4 its connected 24x7 and has never been compromised or failed to restart after a power cut. It just re-connects the LAN and internet access every time.
    I have a 8Meg line but I’m just on the limit of the ADSL range from the exchange. So it use to run at about 4.5-5mbps I have also notice that this latest Zoom-X6 ADSL 2/2+ modem gives me about 0.4 to 0.6Mps more bandwidth than the older Zoom-X4 modem. Which is great and everyone appreciates it? The Wireless performance is good to great, sometimes the laptops have a low network reading but this doesn’t effect internet or email transfer performance.
    If you want one unit to do all these jobs I’d recommend one of these.

    Got rid of my Netgear DG834V2 - this is BRILLIANT
    review by:Alistair Harris rating:
    customer rating
    operating system:Windows XP

    Horrendous problems on XBOX live with my Netgear DG834GV2. Couldn't talk, split speech, lag, lost connections, disconnections at midnight every day. The list was extensive. Tried every firmware avail. Finally gave in and bought this. Its BRILLIANT. Took 5 mins to set up, has more functionality than I know how to use, XBOX works flawlessly. No lag, No lost connections with hosts. Unfortunately bought from PC world (was a sunday and had the option of taking it back if it didn't work). on product box it states works with all Gaming consoles including PS3. I very much like the bandwidth prioity selection - you can set the % for each IP address on your network. Means I can game while my g/f uses the PC internet without affecting the gameplay)
    Friend also bought one for his 360 after me telling him (alsop on Netgear DG834G). He has two XBOXs running through his Zoom with no issues whatsoever. Super router at a great price. Highly recommended.
