D-Link has announced a new line of Wi-Fi 7 routers aimed at both home users and small businesses. These new routers are designed to work with the latest Wi-Fi standard, which is called Wi-Fi 7 or IEEE 802.11be. This standard is known for having faster speeds and better wireless performance compared to older Wi-Fi versions. D-Link says these routers are built to help people who use a lot of wireless devices, stream high-definition videos, play online games, or need steady connections for work.
The new D-Link routers use features that come with Wi-Fi 7, such as the ability to use channels that are 320 MHz wide. This detail means the routers can send more data at once. The routers also use something called Multi-Link Operation, which lets them connect over more than one band at a time. This can help with reducing delays and keeping connections steady even when there are a lot of devices in use at once. The routers are also set up to work with the 6 GHz band, which is a newer part of the wireless spectrum meant to help with crowded networks.
D-Link is offering a few different models in this new line. The most advanced is a tri-band router with speeds up to 19 Gbps. There are also dual-band models for those who do not need as much speed but still want the benefits of Wi-Fi 7. All of these routers come with the latest security features, such as WPA3 encryption and tools for keeping devices safe from online threats. Some models have extra Ethernet ports and USB ports for connecting wired devices or sharing files across a network.
The company says these new routers are made to be easy to set up and use. They come with a mobile app that helps with installation and lets users check on their network from anywhere. The app can also help parents manage internet time for kids or set up guest networks for visitors. D-Link plans to support these routers with regular software updates to keep them working well and secure.
D-Link’s Wi-Fi 7 routers are expected to reach stores soon. The company says they will work with a wide range of devices, including those that use older Wi-Fi versions. This means people can upgrade their wireless networks without having to replace all of their computers or phones. The goal is to give both home users and small businesses a way to get faster and more reliable wireless internet as more devices and online services come into use.
