Sereniti Smart Home Network Service Launches Nationwide

JERSEY CITY, N.J., July 21 -- Sereniti Inc., is bringing its computer networking expertise and peace of mind to home computer network users nationwide with the launch of Sereniti Smart Home Network Service. This revolutionary subscription-based service makes it easy to set up, maintain, protect and get the most out of a home computer network. For significantly less money and time than a typical home computer user invests in technical support services and security-related software alone, Sereniti Home Network Service provides unlimited technical support, powerful parental controls and an integrated security software suite, all of which can be used on multiple PCs across a network, without any additional cost. Tech support is available 24 hours a day, 365 days per year, and the software includes firewalls, virus and spyware protection in addition to advanced parental controls.

"A service making home networking easy and safe for the average person is long overdue," said M. Fahim Siddiqui, CEO of Sereniti Inc. "After personally experiencing the frustration of getting all of the equipment in my home to work together, I knew there had to be many others who were just as aggravated. Now we can provide an all-in-one solution that mirrors the kind of benefits, features and support that was previously available only to corporate computer users."

With the Sereniti Home Network Service, it's easy to set up a home computer network and make all the components in the network work together, while having tech support help available at any time. The service is designed for the growing number of homes with broadband Internet access that have one or more devices connected, such as PCs, printers or network attached storage.

Sereniti Smart Home Network Service can be purchased online at: http://www.sereniti.com or by calling toll-free 1- .

Two special introductory subscription rates are available though August 31:

Monthly Plan -- $99.95 for hardware and activation plus $9.95 per month for service, based on an annual subscription

Annual Plan -- $199.95 for hardware, activation and 12 months of service for a two-month savings

The subscription includes a pop-up blocker and automatic updates of anti- spyware and anti-virus software, eliminating the need to purchase and renew such programs for each computer on a network as normally required, producing significant savings. Based upon the cost of just security software and typical tech support needs, an average consumer in a two-computer household would save almost $300 in the first year alone, using Sereniti Smart Home Network Service.

Sereniti Smart Home Network Service is the first in a family of managed services solutions for home computer networks and integrated Digital Home environments from Sereniti. The service is scheduled to be available at major retailers nationwide in time for the holiday season.

Features of Sereniti Smart Home Network Service

With Sereniti Smart Home Network Service, it's easy to share files and data, add devices, maintain network security, manage user access with parental controls and get technical support around the clock. The following features are included with every subscription and can be used on multiple computers on the network for no additional fee:

* Sereniti Smart Home Gateway, a router that provides connectivity for
both wired and wireless devices. The Smart Home Gateway also creates a
"blueprint" of a home network, communicates with the Sereniti central
support and administration server, and acts as a "traffic cop" for data
coming from and going to computers on the network

* Automated discovery and support of Universal Plug and Play, making it
easy to control the Gateway and simple to add other devices to the
network, including media servers, gaming consoles, network attached
storage, network print servers and other peripherals

* No charge 24-hour /7 day a week Help Desk support available via toll-
free telephone, email or live on-line dialogue

* Advanced parental controls (time/content/access) that enable parents to
restrict Internet access by user name across all PCs on the network,
and also to remotely override the controls from any PC anywhere that
has Internet access

* Two types of firewalls: a hardware firewall in the Smart Home Gateway
and a software firewall that is installed on each PC on the network

* Network management, including remote access to the home network by
Sereniti Tech Specialists via the Internet for diagnostics and
troubleshooting (with subscriber permission)

* File, data and printer sharing

* Easy setup of port-forwarding for hosting online games and other
advanced internet applications such as video chat

* Automatic updates of anti-virus and anti-spyware software for up to
four PCs on the network (additional licenses available)

* Command Center, an intuitive graphical user interface that's truly easy
to use

Sereniti streamlines the management and integration of individual hardware devices, security software, parental control and technical support issues.

"There is a big gap between buying a new device and making it work right in your home network, and then who do you call?" questioned Fahim. "Sereniti automatically discovers your new devices and configures them to work in your network. If there is ever a problem, our tech support is there 24/7 by telephone, chat or email. You no longer have to worry about your home network, because we've made it smart, simple and safe."
