Reliable and Efficient

Using the latest Wireless AC technology, which can provide transfer rates of up to 1.9 Gbps1 (1300 + 600 Mbps), the DIR-880L operates on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless bands at the same time using concurrent dual-band technology and three external antennas.

Advanced Quality of Service (QoS) prioritises the most important data, such as movie streaming and online gaming; its band steering feature efficiently balances the data load between the two bands, while airtime fairness ensures that wireless clients are provided with the most appropriate bandwidth for their needs.
