Getting Started
This chapter introduces the P-336M features and front panel LEDs.
1.1  About Your P-336M    
The ZyXEL P-336M 802.11g Wireless MIMO Router is an 802.11g high-performance, 
wireless router that supports high-speed wireless networking in the Home, SOHO, or SMB 
network environments. 
Unlike most routers, the P-336M provides data transfers at up to 108 Mbps (compared to the 
standard 54 Mbps) when connecting to other compatible MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple 
Output) devices. The P-336M is also backwards compatible with older IEEE 802.11b 
networks making it a true versatile device. This means that there is no need to change your 
entire network to maintain connectivity. IEEE 802.11b has a lower throughput rate than IEEE 
802.11g, but any IEEE 802.11b devices can still connect to an IEEE 802.11g network. You 
may choose to slowly change your network by gradually replacing IEEE 802.11b devices with 
IEEE 802.11g devices. 
1.2  Features
The following lists the features of your P-336M. 
• Supports IEEE 802.11b/g 2.4GHz WLAN with 2.412 to 2.484GHz frequency band 
operation.
• Supports MIMO to increase both transmission speed (with SuperG) and range of your 
wireless network.
• Intelligent receiving with directional antennas for faster throughput and longer ranges.
• Intelligent transmissions for a more efficient performing network.
• Built-in StreamEngine™ feature allowing intelligent and automatic traffic prioritizing.
• Data rates of 1,2.5.5,6,9, 11,12,18,24,36,48,54Mbps and Turbo Mode speed at up to 
108Mbps.
Note: Turbo Mode is an Atheros
TM
 proprietary speed-boosting technology that must 
be used in conjunction with other devices using the Atheros
TM
 radio 
technology.
• Hardware encryption for Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2/WPA) and Wired Equivalent 
Privacy (WEP) without performance degradation.
