Features
Faster Wireless Networking
- The DSL-2877AL provides up to 300Mbps* for the 2.4GHz band and 450Mbps* for the 5GHz band wireless connection with other 802.11n
and 802.11ac wireless clients capability allows users to participate in real-time activities online, such as video streaming, online gaming, and real-time audio.
Compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g Devices
- The DSL-2877AL is still fully compatible with the IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g standards, so it can connect with
existing 802.11b and 802.11g PCI, USB and Cardbus adapters.
DHCP Support
- Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol automatically and dynamically assigns all LAN IP settings to each host on your network. This eliminates the need
to reconfigure every host whenever changes in network topology occur.
Network Address Translation (NAT)
- For small office environments, the DSL-2877AL allows multiple users on the LAN to access the Internet concurrently through a
single Internet account. This provides Internet access to everyone in the office for the price of a single user. NAT improves network security in effect by hiding the private
network behind one global and visible IP address. NAT address mapping can also be used to link two IP domains via a LAN-to-LAN connection.
Precise ATM Traffic Shaping
- Traffic shaping is a method of controlling the flow rate of ATM data cells. This function helps to establish the Quality of Service for ATM
data transfer.
High Performance
- Very high rates of data transfer are possible with the router.
Full Network Management
- The DSL-2877AL incorporates SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) support for web-based management and text-based network
management via a Telnet connection.
Easy Installation
- The DSL-2877AL uses a web-based graphical user interface program for convenient management access and easy set up. Any common web
browsing software can be used to manage this router.
Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE standard 802.11n 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.
