to simultaneously access the Internet. It provides an Ethernet port that can be
connected to a single computer or an Ethernet switch for a group of users, plus
a USB port that can connect to a USB interface of a computer/laptop.

Available at Rs 1,500, GLB-802C provides firewall security using Stateful
