Simultaneous Dual-Band

The Linksys E3000 has double the bandwidth for smoother and faster HD video streaming, file transfers, and gaming.  Connect other computers and devices to the Internet and each other at N speeds in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Simultaneous wireless bands help you avoid network interference. Use the 2.4 GHz band for surfing and emails and the less crowded 5 GHz band for time-critical entertainment. 

Built for Entertainment

Simultaneous dual-band wireless-N technology means smoother HD video streaming and faster gaming. A built-in USB port and UPnP AV media server let you share files over your network, as well as stream music, video, and photos to an Xbox 360, PS3, or other compatible device.  Four Gigabit Ethernet ports enable faster file transfers with other Gigabit devices.  The Linksys E3000 is an optimal choice for  enjoying wireless entertainment at home.
