Chapter 1. Product Overview
Thank you for choosing the TD-W8980 N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem
Router.
1.1 Overview of the Modem Router
The TD-W8980 N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router integrates 4-port
Switch, Firewall, NAT-Router and Wireless AP. Powered by 3X3 MIMO technology, the Wireless
N Router delivers exceptional range and speed, which can fully meet the need of Small
Office/Home Office (SOHO) networks and the users demanding higher networking performance.
The TD-W8980 N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router utilizes integrated
ADSL2+ transceiver and high speed MIPS CPU. The Router supports full-rate ADSL2+
connectivity conforming to the ITU and ANSI specifications.
In addition to the basic DMT physical layer functions, the ADSL2+ PHY supports dual latency
ADSL2+ framing (fast and interleaved) and the I.432 ATM Physical Layer.
The modem router provides up to 300Mbps (2.4GHz) + 300Mbps (5GHz) wireless connection with
other 802.11n wireless clients. The incredible speed makes it ideal for handling multiple data streams
at the same time, which ensures your network stable and smooth. The performance of this 802.11n
wireless Router will give you the unexpected networking experience at speed 650% faster than
802.11g. It is also compatible with all IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11b products.
With multiple protection measures, including SSID broadcast control and wireless LAN 64/128
WEP encryption, Wi-Fi protected Access (WPA2-PSK, WPA-PSK), as well as advanced Firewall
protections, the TD-W8980 N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router provides
complete data privacy.
The Router provides flexible access control, so that parents or network administrators can
establish restricted access policies for children or staff. It also supports Virtual Server and DMZ
host for Port Triggering, and then the network administrators can manage and monitor the network
in real time with the remote management function.
Since the Router is compatible with virtually all the major operating systems, it is very easy to
manage. Quick Setup Wizard is supported and detailed instructions are provided step by step in
this user guide. Before installing the Router, please look through this guide to know all the
Router’s functions.
