Dual Band = Unlimited Connectivity for all your Devices

Dual-band wireless means you get two N450 frequency (2.4HGHz and 5GHz) channels of bandwidth operating simultaneously, with each frequency transferring up to 450 Mbps. Power your iPad®, iPhones®, security cameras, multiple laptops and all your favorite wireless devices on one 450 Mbps channel, and run your high definition audio and video digital entertainment center and gaming systems on the other.

Gigabit Ethernet Ports =Unlimited Home Networking
The HD Media Router 3000 also offers Gigabit Ethernet ports to ensure that up to four (4) of your favorite Ethernet-enabled devices get the most out of their wired connection. HDTVs, the Boxee Box by D-Link, xBox 360, Blu-Ray Players – connect them all, all at once. The HD Media Router 3000 organizes and manages your traffic flow and gets the most out of your broadband connection for seamless 1080p HD video streams and online gaming without annoying glitches or lags.

Advanced Home Networking Simple Setup
High-performance entertainment devices. Wireless signals anywhere in your home. Multiple laptops. Network storage systems. iPads, iPhones – It used to be that designing a home network capable of handling so many devices required some serious hardware and some seriously messy installation.

HD Media Routers offer Wireless G backwards compatibility and Wi-PnP technology for simple wireless connections through a USB drive. With DLNA, the HD Media Router 3000 not only connects to any Ethernet-equipped device, but virtually any device, automatically. With push-button connectivity and 128-bit security encryption standard, a secure home network is as simple as plug and play.

128-bit Security Encryption
The HD Media Router 3000 protects your network with 128-bit AES data security encryption – the same technology used in E-commerce or online banking.

With hassle-free plug and play installation, and advanced Wi-Fi protected setup, the HD Media Router 3000 is not only one of the fastest routers available, its also one of the safest.

Get Ready for the Future - IPv6 Equipped
With the growing number of Internet-enabled applications requiring IP addresses, the supply of IP addresses under the current Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) system has already been exhausted. The IPv6 protocol solves this network addressing exhaustion by creating more IP addresses, but migration from IPv4 to IPv6 is not necessarily automatic. No worries - This D-Link product is IPv6 Certified and ready for the future. IPv6 allows for intelligent self-detect and router setup.

1 Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 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 factors will adversely affect wireless signal range. Wireless range and speed rates are D-Link RELATIVE performance measurements based on the wireless range and speed rates of a standard Wireless G product from D-Link. Maximum throughput based on D-Link Wireless N devices.
