Introduction
Dual Band Wireless for Seamless Performance
The DIR-859 Wireless AC1750 High Power Wi-Fi Gigabit Router features dual-band wireless, allowing you to operate two concurrent,
high-speed Wi-Fi bands for ultimate wireless performance. Surf the web, chat, and play online games on the 2.4GHz band, while
simultaneously streaming digital media on the 5GHz band. What’s more, each band can operate as a separate Wi-Fi network, giving
you the ability to customize your network according to your connectivity needs. You can even congure a guest zone to give visitors
Internet access without giving them access to the rest of your network.
Easy to Set Up, Easy to Secure
Sharing your Internet connection doesn’t have to be a complicated process, just open a web browser to access the setup wizard
and follow the easy step- by-step instructions to get started. Implement WPA/WPA2 wireless security in minutes with the wireless
network setup wizard, or use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), which establishes a secure connection to new devices without the need
to enter settings or create passwords. In addition, the built-in rewall protects against malicious attacks from the Internet, and access
control features allow you to restrict access to your network.
High-Speed Wired and Wireless Connectivity
The DIR-859 uses the latest high-speed wireless technology to bring you lightning-fast Wi-Fi speeds of up to 1750 Mbps, and increased
range. Enjoy streaming media, Internet phone calls, online gaming, and content-rich web surng throughout your home. In addition,
Gigabit Ethernet ports give you solid, dependable wired performance for devices such as media centers and gaming consoles.
