4D-Link DIR-X1870
Section 1 - Product Overview
Exceptional Capacity
If you thought Wi-Fi utilizing MU-MIMO was cool, wait until you meet Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA).
It’s a signature technology in Wi-Fi 6 that splits a channel into four sub-channels. The result? Signals from multiple devices get
transmitted together in one shot and never have to queue up again. Get an incredible 4x boost in your bandwidth capacity perfect
for smart homes lled with bandwidth-hungry IoT devices threatening to devour your Wi-Fi capacity.
Unprecedented Network Eciency
There’s nothing worse than inecient Wi-Fi putting a damper on your network experience. In environments with multiple routers
or access points, BSS Coloring makes transmissions more unique by ‘coloring’ them with their own unique code, resulting in less
interference and more range in congested Wi-Fi environments. Target Wake Time (TWT) eciently schedules transmissions for
client devices, meaning they know when to be ready for data and when to take a break, increasing your device’s battery life. With
the DIR-X1870, give your smart home the network eciency boost it deserves.
Easy to Setup and Manage
Sharing your Internet connection doesn’t have to be a complicated process; just download the free D-Link Wi-Fi app for your
compatible iOS or Android device and follow the on-screen step-by-step instructions to set up your DIR-X1870. You also have the
option to use a web browser to access the setup wizard and manage your router. In addition, access control features allow you
to restrict access to your network, giving you greater control over network users. The DIR-X1870 even integrates voice assistant
compatibility for Amazon Alexa and the Google Assistant so you can control your network with voice commands.
Always Up-to-Date with the Latest Features
Tired of having to check the website or going to the DIR-X1870’s UI manually to check for the latest rmware updates? The
DIR-X1870 will automatically check for updates on a daily basis to make sure that the device always has the latest features with
the most secure rmware and installs updates silently in the background. For an extra peace of mind, in the event of failure during
an automatic or manual rmware upgrade, the router will store a backup system image in the memory beforehand.
