- Hardware or Software Controllers
- Centralized Cloud Management
- Intelligent Monitoring
Up to Three WAN Gigabit Ports & One USB WAN for Mobile Broadband
Two freely interchangeable ports allow the router to support up to three WAN ports for various Internet access requirements. The multi-WAN Load Balancing function distributes data streams according to the bandwidth proportion of every WAN port to raise the utilization rate of multi-line broadband.
Mobile broadband via 4G/3G modem by connecting to the USB port is also supported for WAN backup.
High-Security and High-Performance VPN
ER605 supports IPSec/PPTP/L2TP VPN over IPSec/SSL protocols. One-click auto IPSec VPN* greatly simplifies VPN configuration and facilitates network management and deployment. It also secures and encrypts private site-to-site data communications traveling over the internet. This version improves VPN performance by 4–5 times thanks to the open line of communication with Omada's user base.
Abundant Security Features
Powerful Firewall
Advanced firewall policies
protect your network and data.
Convenient VLAN Support
Create virtual network segments for
enhanced security and simplified
network management.
DoS Defense
Automatically detects and blocks Denial of Service
(DoS) attacks such as TCP/UDP/ICMP Flooding, Ping
of Death, and other related threats.
IP/MAC/URL Filtering
Forcefully prevent viruses and attacks
from intruders.
IP-MAC Binding
Reserves static IP assignment for
clients to defend against ARP
attacks and spoofing.
One-Click ALG Activation
One-Click ALG Activation for
applications such as FTP, H323, SIP,
IPSec and PPTP.
Internet Access Management Strategy
Administrators can moderate users' online behavior and easily specify employees' internet access rights and strategies via IP/MAC/URL Filtering and Access Control List (ACL). Captive Portal authentication facilitates network resource control by capturing, authenticating, and classifying user access. Appropriate network resources can also be allocated for particular users or guests.
Easy Management with the Omada App
Follow configuration instructions on the free Omada app to get set up in minutes. Omada lets you configure settings, monitor the network status, and manage clients, all from the convenience of a mobile device.
