D-Link DSL-2740R
Section 1 - Product Overview
Features
• Faster Wireless Networking
- The DSL-2740R provides a wireless connection of up to 300 Mbps* with other 802.11n wireless clients. This
capability allows users to fully participate in real-time activities online, such as video streaming, online gaming, and real-time audio.
• Compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g Devices
- The DSL-2740R is still fully compatible with the IEEE 802.11b and g standards, so it can
connect with existing 802.11b and g PCI, USB, and Cardbus adapters.
• DHCP Support
- Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol automatically and dynamically assigns all LAN IP settings to each host on your network.
This eliminates the need to reconfigure every host whenever changes in network topology occur.
• Network Address Translation (NAT)
- For small office environments, the DSL-2740R allows multiple users on the LAN to access the Internet
concurrently through a single Internet account. This provides Internet access to everyone in the office for the price of a single user. NAT improves
network security in effect by hiding the private network behind one global and visible IP address. NAT address mapping can also be used to
link two IP domains via a LAN-to-LAN connection.
• Precise ATM Traffic Shaping
- Traffic shaping is a method of controlling the flow rate of ATM data cells. This function helps to establish the
Quality of Service for ATM data transfer.
• High Performance
- Very high rates of data transfer are possible with the Router including a downsteam bit rate of up to 24 Mbps using the
G.dmt standard. (For ADSL2+)
• Full Network Management
- The DSL-2740R incorporates SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) support for web-based management
and text-based network management via Telnet connection.
• Easy Installation
- The DSL-2740R uses a web-based graphical user interface program for convenient management access and easy setup. Any
common web browser software can be used to manage the router.
*Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE standard 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, can lower the actual data throughput rate.
Environmental factors will adversely affect wireless signal range.
