D-Link DIR-880L

Introduction D-Link has a long history in the network business and I myself have personally had many of their devices in use over the years, so my expectations are high here. I have the pleasure to take the D-Link DIR-880L AC1900 Dual Band Gigabit Cloud Router for a spin in the test area and it will be interesting to see what the DIR-880L can perform. Right off the top we have the best possible wireless connectivity with the concurrent dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz connectivity for a total speed of 1900Mbps, 600 Mbps from the 2.4GHz band and 1300 from the 5GHz

The Wireless AC1900 Dual Band Gigabit Cloud Router (DIR-880L) comes with D-Link's modern and mobile-optimized UI, is a good performer in 802.11n and legacy wireless modes, but it's just average in 802.11ac throughput.

Today we take a look at D-Link's newest flagship router, the DIR-880L. Packed with tons of features, see how this router holds up against the competition.

D-Link's latest router boasts aggregate speeds of up to 1,900Mbps. Released last October, this AC1900 router may appear inferior to rivals that tout 2,400Mbps (AC2400) or 3,200Mbps (AC3200) speeds. But here is the thing: Most of those routers offer just 1,300Mbps on 802.11ac, the most current Wi-Fi standard. In fact, older AC1750 routers also have a top speed of 1,300Mbps....
