Security is another important aspect of the DSL-360T, which comes with built-in firewall protection and support for WPA/WPA2 encryption protocols. These features ensure that users’ data remains secure from unauthorized access, a critical consideration in today’s digital age.

The compact design of the modem/router is user-friendly, with LED indicators that provide real-time information about the device’s status, including power, DSL, and LAN connectivity. This visual feedback helps users troubleshoot any potential issues quickly.

In conclusion, the D-Link DSL-360T is a robust solution for users seeking reliable ADSL connectivity combined with versatile networking capabilities.
