Up to 6 simultaneous streams let you enjoy faster, more enjoyable 4K streaming, online gaming and more, and should you require them - 4 Gigabit LAN ports and 1 Gigabit WAN port give you faster wired connectivity whenever you wish.
Connect More, Congest Less with OFDMA
The DIR-X4860 uses Wi-Fi 6’s cutting-edge Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) technology. Small data packets destined for multiple devices are transmitted together and never have to queue up again. Perfect for Smart Homes filled with bandwidth-hungry IoT devices battling for bandwidth.
Two-way MU-MIMO
MU-MIMO technology helps distribute the flow of data to multiple devices simultaneously. With Wi-Fi 6 technology the DIR-X4860 leverages OFDMA and MU-MIMO for better efficiency of upstream AND downstream transmissions, unlike previous Wi-Fi 5 technology where MU-MIMO could only operate in downstream transmissions. This combination greatly increases capacity, coverage and performance especially in ultra-high-density environments.
Extended Coverage, Reduced Interference
High-gain antennas, built-in power amplifiers and beamforming technology allow the DIR-X4860 to extend the reach of your Wi-Fi and focus a stronger signal in the direction of your devices to ensure a stronger, faster and more reliable Wi-Fi experience. Meanwhile a long OFDM symbol ensures even greater Wi-Fi range, especially outside the home.
The Future of Wireless Encryption
One of the biggest concerns with Wi-Fi networks and connected devices is privacy. The latest 128-bit encryption is the most advanced standard available and begins a new era of wireless encryption, providing greater privacy throughout users’ networks and devices.
The Future of Wireless Encryption
The latest WPA3 encryption will replace previous industry-standard encryptions on Wi-Fi devices
Stronger Encryption Algorithm
Creates stronger and more unique encryption keys for each device
Enhanced Protection from Brute Force Attacks
Stronger protection for users against password guessing attempts
Individualized Data Encryption
Creates stronger and more unique encryption keys for each device
Forward Secrecy
Cannot use a cracked password to decrypt previously-intercepted traffic
Futureproof and Compatible
D-Link routers will not be the ones holding your network back with previous encryption protocols
Conserve Energy, Save Battery Life
Target Wake Time (TWT) helps reduce battery consumption for connected devices by communicating with them and deciding when and how often the device requires data transfers. TWT increases the device’s sleep time, therefore cleverly extending the battery life of client devices and optimizing spectrum utilization.
Always Up-to-Date
Firmware upgrades can be a pain, but with the DIR-X4860, they are completely automated. Upgrades are so smooth, you won’t even notice them. On top of that, the DIR-X4860’s Dual Image functionality saves a recovery image as a backup before an upgrade. So, in the unlikely event an upgrade fails, the system has your pre-existing configuration to fall back on.
BSS Coloring
Your neighbors’ Wi-Fi could be interfering with your wireless signals and slowing things down. Wi-Fi 6 puts an end to the Wi-Fi strife with BSS Coloring technology. It makes transmissions more unique by ‘coloring’ them with their own unique code.
The result? Devices can decide whether to transmit signals or ignore them, based on their “color”. Get less interference, less Wi-Fi slowdowns and more range.
Works with the Google Assistant and Alexa
Turn on/off your guest Wi-Fi, ask for your guest Wi-Fi credentials, reboot your router or update your firmware. Do it ALL hands-free using voice commands.
Just speak the words of command to your Google Assistant or Alexaand the router bends your smart home Wi-Fi to your will (without you having to lift a finger).
Perfect for when you’ve got your hands full entertaining guests or just want to wow them with your smart Wi-Fi.
Simple Setup and Management
Download the free D-Link Wi-Fi app for super simple setup and ongoing management. Set parental controls based on your family’s online needs, access your Wi-Fi settings and more, directly from your smartphone or tablet.
