Introduction
HIGH-SPEED WAN (ADSL2/2+ or Gigabit Ethernet WAN) INTERNET CONNECTION
Latest ADSL2/2+ standards provide Internet transmission of up to 24Mbps downstream, 2.7Mbps upstream. Gigabit Ethernet WAN offers you plenty of bandwidth
once you decide to employ Ethernet WAN to connect front end bridge modem.
HIGH-PERFORMANCE WIRELESS
Embedded 802.11ac* technology for high-speed wireless connection, complete compatibility with 802.11a/b/g/n wireless devices
TOTAL SECURITY
Firewall protection from Internet attacks, user access control, WPA/WPA2 wireless security.
ULTIMATE INTERNET CONNECTION
The DSL-2880AL ADSL2+ router is a versatile, high-performance remote router for home and the small office. With integrated ADSL2/2+ supporting up to
24Mbps download and 2.7Mbps upload speed, Gigabit Ethernet WAN Port, firewall protection, Quality of Service (QoS), 802.11ac wireless LAN and 4 Gigabit
Ethernet LAN switch ports, this router provides all the functions that a home or small office needs to establish a secure and high-speed remote link to the outside
world.
ULTIMATE WIRELESS CONNECTION WITH MAXIMUM SECURITY
This router provides maximize wireless performance by connecting this router to computer interfaces and stay connected from virtually anywhere at home and in
the office. The router can be used with
802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless networks to enable significantly improved reception. It supports WPA/WPA2 and WEP for
flexible user access security and data encryption methods.
FIREWALL PROTECTION & QoS
Security features prevents unauthorized access to the home and office network, be it from the wireless devices or from the Internet. The router provides firewall
security using Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) and hacker attack logging for Denial of Service (DoS) attack protection. SPI inspects the contents of all incoming
packet headers before deciding what packets are allowed to pass through. Router access control is provided with packet filtering based on port and
source/destination MAC/IP addresses. For Quality of Service (QoS), the router supports multiple priority queues to enable a group of home or office users to
experience the benefit of smooth network connection of inbound and outbound data without concern of traffic congestion. This QoS support allows users to enjoy
high ADSL transmission for applications such as VoIP and streaming multimedia over the Internet.
*Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE standard 802.11ac specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network
traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental factors will adversely affect wireless signal range.
