FAQs for XGS 128w
Q: What does the "w" mean in XGS 128w?
A: The "w" stands for wireless. The XGS 128w model has a built-in Wi-Fi access point (Wi-Fi 5 / 802.11ac) that can broadcast your wireless network, removing the need to buy a separate access point for a small office.
Q: Who is the XGS 128w designed for?
A: The XGS 128w is designed for mid-sized businesses and larger branch offices (up to 125 users) that need a single device for both high-performance firewall security and local Wi-Fi.
Q: What is the difference between the Xstream Protection bundle and the Standard Protection bundle?
A: Xstream Protection (included in this bundle) is the all-in-one, top-tier bundle. The "Standard Protection" bundle is a more basic package that does not include Zero-Day Protection (Sandstorm) or Central SD-WAN Orchestration. We highly recommend the Xstream Protection bundle for complete security.
