This series provides essential features for those looking to establish reliable and secure connectivity. With its advanced technology, it positions itself as an excellent choice for businesses needing to manage their network capabilities efficiently.

One of the standout features of the Draytek 2800 series is its support for various WAN connections. Businesses can opt for ADSL, ADSL2+, or Ethernet connections, allowing them flexibility depending on their internet service capabilities. This versatility ensures that users can select the most appropriate setup based on the local infrastructure.

In terms of security, the Draytek 2800 series is equipped with robust firewalls, including stateful packet inspection and DoS protection. This ensures that the network remains protected from potential threats. Additionally, it offers VPN capabilities, enabling secure remote access for employees working from different locations. The support for multiple VPN protocols, such as PPTP and L2TP, allows for secure and versatile connections.

The series also features an integrated, 4-port Ethernet switch, simplifying the task of connecting multiple devices within a local area network.

Another characteristic is its web-based management interface, which simplifies network administration. IT professionals can easily configure and monitor the router settings without needing extensive technical expertise.
