D-Link DI-624+ Wireless ADSL Router
D-Link DI-624+
Review & Specification:
The DI-624+ AirPlusXtremeG+ is a high-speed 2.4GHz 802.11g wireless broadband Router with a built-in 4-port Fast Ethernet Switch. It incorporates high-speed wireless LAN with speeds of up to 54Mbps. This router lets you quickly share DSL or cable modem Internet connection, with or without the network wires. With advanced functions traditionally found in business-class routers, this router gives your business a cost-effective way to install a secure and fast network with bottleneck-free link to the outside world.
Simplified, Cost-saving Broadband Internet Connection
As the most basic function, the router allows you to share your broadband line and cable/DSL modem in your office or home. To let everybody logon, this device automatically creates and assigns an IP number for each user, simplifying every one's logon operation.
Ready Connection
With built-in wireless LAN connections and 10/100Mbps switch, this router provides ready connection for workstations and servers, with or without the network wires. These built-in functions save you the cost and trouble of installing a separate wireless access point and Ethernet switch.
Enhanced Wireless Speeds
At up to 54Mbps, the router provides wireless LAN users a very high data transfer rate. This compares favorably with the 11Mbps speed of 802.11b wireless devices, and the 22Mbps rate of 802.11b+ equipment. In addition, adoption of the 2.4GHz frequency, now available for public use in most countries, makes this router an ideal solution for bandwidth intensive WLAN applications.
Compatible With 802.11b and 802.11b+
In addition to providing 54Mbps rate when operating with wireless users using D-Link AirPlusXtremeG+ equipment, this router is also compatible with existing 802.11b and 802.11b+ wireless devices. This means that you may sacrifice some of the router's high speed when you mix with your existing 802.11b and 802.11b+ devices, but you will not lose any ability to communicate.
Firewall and VPN Protection
The router provides NAT protection for your office and home users from Internet intruders and hacker attacks. For telecommuters or anyone who needs to transmit sensitive information more securely, the router supports VPN session IPSec, L2TP and PPTP pass-through. The router also blocks and re-directs certain ports to limit the services that outside users can access your network. Virtual Server Mapping is used to re-task services to multiple servers. The router can be set to allow separate FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share the same Internet-visible IP address while still protecting your servers and workstations from hackers.
DMZ Host to Open Public Domain
You can configure any of the built-in LAN ports to function as a DMZ port. A DMZ setting can be applied to a single client (such as a Web server) behind the router to fully expose it to the Internet and ensure complete Internet application compatibility even if the specific port isnot known. This allows you to set up web sites and e-commerce business from your office while maintaining protection for the rest of your office LAN.
Access Control
Access to the router from your home/office can be set based on users' MAC addresses and IP addresses. Parental control to filter certain URL and block web sites can be set through URL keywords and domain names. Outbound link scheduling can be made in conjunction with NTP. The router supports the Network Time Protocol (NTP), allowing you to install a time server behind the router to synchronize time for your network environment. This protects you from the risks inherent in obtaining Internet, minimizes security risks from the outside, and maximizes timing accuracy on your network.
Enhanced Wireless Security
To protect transmitted data in the air, the router employs the enhanced 64/128/256-bit industry-standard WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption protocol. WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) provides users a higher level of security for data and communications than has previously been available.* * WPA functions available in future firmware upgrade release
UPnP Enabled for Compatibility
The router is designed for easy and robust connectivity among heterogeneous standards-based network devices. Computers can communicate directly with the router for automatic opening and closing of UDP/TCP ports to take full advantage of security provided without sacrificing functionality of on-line applications.
