Share Files with Friends the Easy Way

Catering to users who wish to share files easily and without hassle, ASUS, leading provider of high-performance wireless solutions, today introduced the WL-500gP V2 multi-functional wireless router. This cutting-edge router is Vista ready, and includes innovative features like AiDisk for easy file sharing, EZQos bandwidth management, and UPnP media streaming – making it the perfect solution for homes as well as offices.

‘Works with Vista’ Certified
The WL-500gP V2 has passed the “Works with Vista” certificate, and ensures fast and reliable wireless connectivity suitable for the demands of high-quality VoIP, video and online gaming functions. Utilizing the Network and Sharing Center in Windows Vista is also not a problem, and the WL-500gP V2 is also Xbox Live compatible for fast and reliable gaming and movie downloads.

UPnP Media Sharing
The WL-500gP V2 supports the UPnP protocol and automatically searches and recognizes all digital media players in the network. This makes it easy to share music and video files stored through the WL-500gP V2 to any WiFi device via smooth streaming from the external hard drive to the digital media players.

Easy and Hassle-free File Sharing
The most unique function for WL-500gP V2 is AiDisk. AiDisk combines simple FTP settings with the ASUS DDNS service to share files with friends easily no matter when and where the user is. By simply utilizing the WL-500gP V2 with a USB hard disk, users will be able to create a mini FTP server at home and only requires them to setup an account and password and select the file they want to share. With the bundled AiDisk quick installation guide included in the box, users can rest easy and not worry about complicated settings.

With the ASUS built-up DDNS server, users can register unique hostnames associated with their dynamic IP addresses. They can even run the FTP server on a dynamically assigned IP, and best of all, it’s free! Currently, the ASUS DDNS service is embedded and integrated into ASUS wireless routers like the WL-500gP V2 by default. Users will be able to easily create their own FTP servers with easily recognized and meaningful hostname like: ftp://yourname.asuscomm.com, instead of a hard to remember IP addresses or URLs.
