With some routers, all wired and wireless traffic, including VoIP, Video Streaming, Online Gaming, and Web browsing are mixed together into a single data stream. By handling data this way, bandwidth intensive applications like video streaming could pause or delay. With D-Link Intelligent QoS Technology, wired and wireless traffic are analyzed and separated into multiple data streams.

Support for WPA™ and WPA2™ standards ensures that you will be able to use the best possible encryption regardless of your client devices. In addition, this router utilizes Dual Active Firewalls (SPI and NAT) to prevent potential attacks from across the Internet making it the ideal centerpiece for your wireless network in the home or office.
