DIR-825/ACFEOL EOS

Wireless N600 Dual Band Gigabit Router with 3G/LTE Support and USB Port

Description

USB Port
The router is equipped with a USB port for connecting a USB modem, which can be used to establish connection to the Internet. In addition, to the USB port of the router you can connect a USB storage device, which will be used as a network drive, or a printer.
 
Wireless Interface
Using the DIR-825/ACF device, you are able to quickly create a high-speed wireless network at home or in your office, which lets computers and mobile devices access the Internet virtually anywhere (within the operational range of your wireless network). Simultaneous activity of 2.4GHz band and 5GHz band allows performing a wide range of tasks. The router can operate as a base station for connecting wireless devices of the standards 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, and 802.11ac (at the wireless connection rate up to 1167Mbps1).
 
Secure Wireless Connection
The router supports multiple functions for the wireless interface: several security standards (WEP, WPA/WPA2), MAC address filtering, WPS, WMM.
In addition, the device is equipped with a button for switching the Wi-Fi network off/on. If needed, for example, when you leave home, you can easily switch the router’s WLAN by pressing the button, and devices connected to the LAN ports of the router will stay online.
 
Advanced Capabilities of Wireless Network
Support of guest Wi-Fi network allows you to create a separate wireless network with individual security settings and maximum rate limitation. Devices connected to the guest network will be able to access the Internet, but will be isolated from the devices and resources of the router's LAN.
Smart adjustment of Wi-Fi clients is useful for networks based on several D-Link access points or routers – when the smart adjustment function is configured on each of them, a client always connects to the access point (router) with the highest signal level.
 
Airgain Built-in Antennas
The router is equipped with Airgain built-in omnidirectional antennas. In spite of their compact size, such antennas can compete and even exceed performance of traditional whip antennas. Airgain antennas provide high gain (4dBi for 2.4GHz band and 6dBi for 5GHz band) and circular pattern in both horizontal and vertical plane; due to this, Airgain antennas show excellent performance in any direction, increase wireless network range and minimize occurrence of blind spots.
 
Security
The wireless router DIR-825 includes a built-in firewall. The advanced security functions minimize threats of hacker attacks, prevent unwanted intrusions to your network, and block access to unwanted websites for users of your LAN.
Built-in Yandex.DNS service protects against malicious and fraudulent web sites and helps to block access to adult content on children's devices.
 
Easy configuration and update
You can configure the settings of the wireless router DIR-825 via the user-friendly web-based interface (the interface is available in several languages).
You can simply update the firmware: the router itself finds approved firmware on D-Link update server and notifies when ready to install it.
 

1 Up to 300Mbps for 2.4GHz and up to 300Mbps for 5GHz.
