D-Link DIR-615

Description

Wireless Interface

Using the DIR-615 device, you are able to quickly create a wireless network at home or in your office, which lets computers and mobile devices access the Internet virtually anywhere (within the operational range of your wireless network). The router can operate as a base station for connecting wireless devices of the standards 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n (at the rate up to 300Mbps).

Secure Wireless Connection

The router supports multiple functions for the wireless interface: several security standards (WEP, WPA/WPA2), MAC address filtering, WPS, WMM.

Advanced Capabilities of Wireless Network

Smart adjustment of Wi-Fi clients is useful for networks based on several D-Link access points or routers – when the smart adjustment function is configured on each of them, a client always connects to the access point (router) with the highest signal level.

Support of guest Wi-Fi network allows you to create a separate wireless network with individual security settings and maximum rate limitation. Devices connected to the guest network will be able to access the Internet, but will be isolated from the devices and resources of the router's LAN.

4-port Switch

The built-in 4-port switch enables you to connect Ethernet-enabled computers, game consoles, and other devices to your network.

Security

The wireless router DIR-615 includes a built-in firewall. The advanced security functions minimize threats of hacker attacks, prevent unwanted intrusions to your network, and block access to unwanted websites for users of your LAN.

Built-in Yandex.DNS service protects against malicious and fraudulent web sites and helps to block access to adult content on children's devices.

Easy configuration and update

You can configure the settings of the wireless router DIR-615 via the user-friendly web-based interface (the interface is available in two languages – in Russian and in English).

The configuration wizard allows you to quickly switch DIR-615 to one of the following modes: router (for connection to a wired or wireless ISP), access point, repeater, or client, and then configure all needed setting for operation in the selected mode in several simple steps.

Also DIR-615 supports configuration and management via mobile application for Android smartphones.

You can simply update the firmware: the router itself finds approved firmware on D-Link update server and notifies when ready to install it.
