With the DIR-2150, you're not only enjoying buffer-free gaming and lightning fast surfing, you're also enjoying features such as an automatically optimizing QoS with a built-in speedtest, an automatic firmware update system that ensures the best protection and the latest features, and compatibility with voice assistants.

All this is possible with the router's 880 Mhz dual-core high-power processor, 128MB of flash memory and 128MB of RAM. The router is no longer just a networking device – it is an intelligent home gateway with processing power to boot.

The built-in Quality of Service (QoS) engine allows you to prioritize important traffic to ensure that your favorite applications are receiving optimal bandwidth. Also included as part of the QoS feature is the speedtest, which not only allows you to check the current upload and download speed of your Internet connection, but also gives you the option of automatically configuring your router to optimize your traffic according to speedtest results.

The DIR-2150 will automatically check daily for updates to make sure that the device always has the latest features and the most secure firmware, and will install the update silently in the background. For an extra peace of mind, in the event of failure during the firmware update, the router will store a backup system image in the memory before proceeding with the update.

Sharing your Internet connection doesn’t have to be a complicated process; just download the free D-Link Wi-Fi app for your mobile device and follow the on-screen step-by-step instructions to set up your DIR-2150. You also have the option to use a web browser to access the setup wizard and to manage your router. Support for industry-standard Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) lets you create encrypted connections to new devices by pressing a button.
