The benefits of Quadband
D-Link’s DIR-815 Wireless N Home Router uses Quadband technology to support 2.4 GHz & 5.0 GHz wireless signals at the same time. This allows you to check e-mails and browse the Internet using the 2.4 GHz band while simultaneously streaming movies and other media on the 5.0 GHz band. The DIR-815 is designed for home users looking for a wireless connection that can handle video streaming throughout the house, while being backward compatible with existing 802.11g and 802.11a products.
Smart QoS prioritisation
With some routers, all wired and wireless traffic, including Voice over IP (VoIP), video streaming, online gaming, and web browsing are mixed together into a single data stream. By handling data this way, applications such as streaming video may stutter or have an unstable connection. With the D-Link Smart QoS technology, wired and wireless traffic are analyzed and separated into multiple data streams. Different applications like voice, video, and data will be automatically detected and the transmission sequence will be automatically prioritised.
IPv6 ready
This router is ready for the future of the Internet with support for the upcoming move from IPv4 to IPv6. It carries the IPv6 Ready Gold Logo, meaning that it not only supports the IPv6 protocol, but is also compatible with IPv6 equipment from other manufacturers. Using a dual-stack architecture, this router can handle routing for both IPv4 and IPv6 networks at the same time, so you can be assured that your equipment is forward and backward compatible.
D-Link Green™
The DIR-815 is part of D-Link Green™, D-Link’s programme for providing eco-friendly alternatives without compromising performance. The DIR-815 supports WLAN Scheduler, which switches off the wireless network when not needed, for example at nights or during working hours. Also the power consumption is further reduced with its Energy Start™ power supply.
