300Mbps. With a high-performance steel antenna and Huawei's proprietary WLAN security lock,

WS331a is your ideal choice for business, leisure, and school.

WLAN security lock

Huawei's proprietary WLAN security lock lets you turn on WLAN security mode at the push of a

button. In WLAN security mode, unwanted guests will be kept at bay and your WLAN will be secure.

WS331a. You can also install the HUAWEI RuMate app on your smartphone or tablet to manage your

router.

High-Speed Ethernet Connectivity

The WS331a provides WAN ports for Ethernet-enabled devices to access the Internet at high speeds.

WLAN access

The WS331a incorporates a built-in high-performance steel antenna and uses the advanced 802.11n

dual-antenna multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) design, providing wireless access of up to

300Mbps, increasing wireless signal penetration, and significantly reducing dead spots.

Routing

Multiple devices can access the WS331a simultaneously through a dial-up connection, Dynamic Host

Configuration Protocol (DHCP), or a static IP address.

WLAN repeating

The WS331a can work as a wireless repeater, expanding the WLAN coverage.

Bandwidth Control

The WS331a supports bandwidth control and allocates bandwidth to different computers within your

home based on Internet access requirements. Your family can then access the Internet, play online

games, and watch videos without interfering with each other.
