D-Link DIR-878

details: AC1900 High Power Wi-Fi Gigabit Router
hardware type: Wireless Router
date added: 2017-07-11
updated: 2017-07-13
4 High-Gain Antennas and MU-MIMO technology combine for enhanced Wi-Fi coverage in and around your home. The DIR-878 avoids interference to deliver the fastest wireless speeds, improved coverage and reliable connections.

The router provides concurrent dual-band wireless for connections up to 1900Mbps (600Mbps + 1300Mbps).

Use the 2.4 GHz band for everyday tasks, while leaving the high-speed 5GHz AC band free for 4K video streaming, online gaming and large file transfers.

With fewer devices using the high-speed 5GHz band, there's less interference and congestion, giving you better performance and a lag-free wireless experience.

Advanced QoS engine distributes traffic optimally across both wireless bands to guarantee the best performance.
