D-Link DSL-2885A User Manual
Section 1 - Product Overview
• Faster Wireless Networking
- The DSL-2885A introduces Smart Connect, a new D-Link feature which when
combined with an additional 5 Ghz antenna can provide up to a full 1200 Mbps
*
wireless connection with
concurrent 801.11ac and 802.11n wireless clients . It also operates on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands to
allow separation of traffic so users can participate in high-bandwidth activities, such as video streaming, online
gaming, and real-time audio, without affecting low-priority traffic like email and web surfing.
• Compatible with 802.11n/g/b/a Devices
- The DSL-2885A is still fully compatible with the 802.11n, IEEE
802.11g and 802.11a standards, so it can connect with existing 802.11n, 802.11g, 802.11b, and 802.11a wireless
devices.
• Advanced Firewall Features
- The web-based user interface displays a number of advanced network
management features including:
•
Content Filtering
- Easily applied content filtering based on MAC address, URL, and/or domain
name.
•
Scheduling
- The Firewall, wireless, and port forwarding features can be scheduled to be active on
certain days, or for a duration of a set number of hours.
•
Secure Multiple/Concurrent Sessions
- The DSL-2885A can pass through VPN sessions. It supports
multiple and concurrent IPSec and PPTP sessions, so users behind the DSL-2885A can securely
access corporate networks.
• User-friendly Setup Wizard
- Through its easy-to-use web-based user interface, the DSL-2885A lets you control
what information is accessible to those on the wireless network, whether from the Internet, or from your
company’s server. Configure your router to your specific settings within minutes.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, and 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
conditions will adversely affect wireless signal range.
