DIR-X1860

AX1800 Wi-Fi 6 Gigabit Router

Description

Wireless Interface
Support of WI-Fi 6 (802.11ax) standard provides faster speeds, greater capacity, and less network congestion for high-performance device-dense environments. It ensures connection of more devices and prevents weakening wireless connectivity by wall obstruction and interference from other appliances.
Using the DIR-X1860 device, you are able to quickly create a high-speed 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). Simultaneous activity of 2.4GHz band and 5GHz band allows performing a wide range of tasks. The router can operate as a base station for connecting wireless devices of the standards 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, 802.11ac, and 802.11ax (at the wireless connection rate up to 1775Mbps1).
 
Secure Wireless Connection
The router supports multiple functions for the wireless interface: several security standards (WEP, WPA/WPA2/WPA3), MAC address filtering, WPS, WMM.
In addition, the device is equipped with a button for switching the Wi-Fi network off/on2. If needed, for example, when you leave home, you can easily switch the router’s WLAN by pressing the button, and devices connected to the LAN ports of the router will stay online.
 
Advanced Capabilities of Wireless Network
Multi-user MIMO technology allows to distribute the router's resources to let multiple wireless clients use the Wi-Fi network efficiently, keeping high rates for HD media streaming, lag-free gaming, and fast transfer of large files.
Transmit Beamforming technology allows to flexibly change the antennas' radiation pattern and to redistribute the signal directly to wireless devices connected to the router.
Support of guest Wi-Fi network allows you to create a separate wireless network with individual security settings. 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.
 
LAN/WAN Conversion, WAN Failover
You can use any Ethernet port of the router as LAN or WAN port. The new-generation firmware supports assigning several WAN ports, for example, in order to configure the primary and backup WAN connection of different ISPs.
 
Security
The wireless router DIR-X1860 includes a built-in firewall. The advanced security functions minimize threats of hacker attacks and prevent unwanted intrusions to your network, and block access to unwanted websites for users of your LAN.
The SSH protocol support provides more secure remote configuration and management of the router due to encryption of all transmitted traffic, including passwords.
In addition, the router supports IPsec and allows to create secure VPN tunnels. Support of the IKEv2 protocol allows to provide simplified message exchange and use asymmetric authentication engine upon configuration of an IPsec tunnel.
The router also supports the SkyDNS web content filtering service, which provides more settings and opportunities for safer Internet experience for home users of all ages and for professional activities of corporate users.
Now the schedules are also implemented; they can be applied to the rules and settings of the firewall and used to reboot the router at the specified time or every specified time period and to enable/disable the wireless network and the Wi-Fi filter.
The new ad blocking function effectively blocks advertisements which appear during web surfing.
 
Easy configuration and update
You can configure the settings of the wireless router DIR-X1860 via the user-friendly web-based interface (the interface is available in several languages).
The configuration wizard allows you to quickly switch DIR-X1860 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-X1860 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.
1Up to 574Mbps for 2.4GHz and up to 1201Mbps for 5GHz.
2Disabling/enabling the Wi-Fi network via the hardware button will be implemented in future software versions.
