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. This allows
you to browse the web, chat and e-mail using the 2.4 GHz band, while simultaneously streaming
digital media, playing online games, or making Internet phone calls on the 5 GHz band. 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.
Easy to Set Up and Use
Get the DIR-880L up and running in no time right from your sofa with the touch screen
enhanced web-based setup wizard. Simply open the web browser on your smartphone or
tablet to setup and follow a few easy steps to get your home network connected without
having to switch on a computer. You can also set up a secure network with the touch of a
button using Wi-Fi Protected Setup. Simply press the WPS button to instantly establish a
secure connection to a new device. If you have additional mydlink cloud products, you can
