D-Link DSL-2888A

details: PYTHON - Dual Band Wireless AC1600 Gigabit ADSL2+/VDSL2 Router
hardware type: DSL Wireless Router
date added: 2018-03-02
The DSL-2888A uses the latest Wireless AC technology, which provides transfer rates of up to 1.6 Gbps (1300 AC + 300 N).

Featuring a 3x3 MU-MIMO antenna configuration, the router operates on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless bands at the same time using concurrent dual-band technology and three external antennas. This allows you to browse the web, chat and e-mail using the 2.4 GHz band, while simultaneously streaming digital media, playing online games, or making Internet voice calls on the 5 GHz band.

The D-Link DSL-2888A Wireless AC1600 Dual-Band Gigabit ADSL2+/VDSL2 Router comes not only with a built-in high speed VDSL/ADSL modem, but is also equipped with a Gigabit Ethernet WAN port. This means that if your primary connection method should fail, the DSL-2888A will automatically fall back to your pre-defined backup connection.

The DSL-2888A Wireless AC1200 Dual-Band Gigabit ADSL2+/VDSL2 Router has built-in dual active firewalls (SPI and NAT) so you can shop online and do your online banking with confidence.

It is also equipped with WPA wireless security and access control to protect your network from unauthorized access and outside threats so you can use the Internet with confidence. In addition, QoS priority queues and packet prioritization minimize traffic congestion and deliver smooth VoIP and streaming media.
