[Martta]

DLink Router can be configured in just a few minutes and once you have configured the router and set it up, your Wi-Fi connection will set up and you will be able to connect to the internet through your D-Link Router.

D-Link DIR-816 Wireless AC750 Dual Band Router is an affordable yet powerful wireless networking solution which combines the latest high-speed 802.11ac Wi-Fi technology with dual-band technology and fast Ethernet ports to deliver a seamless networking experience.

The increased range and reliability of wireless AC technology reaches farther into your home, and advanced security features keep your network and data safe from intruders. D-Link DIR-816 Wireless AC750 Dual Band Router gives you lightning-fast combined Wi-Fi speeds of up to 750 Mbps1 and increased range.

It also uses dual-band wireless, allowing you to operate two concurrent, high-speed Wi-Fi bands for ultimate wireless performance. Surf the web, chat, and play online games on the 2.4 GHz band, while simultaneously streaming digital media on the 5 GHz band2.

Whats more, each band can operate as a separate Wi-Fi network, giving you the ability to customize your network according to your connectivity needs. You can even configure a guest zone to give visitors Internet access without giving them access to the rest of your network.

D-Link DIR-816 Wireless AC750 Dual Band Router IS enabled, so you can effortlessly access and view your network no matter where you are. See who is connected to your router, change settings, or block someone from using your network connection, all from any Internet connected PC, or an iOS or Android mobile device.

D-LINK DIR-816L is probably the cheapest Unifi capable Wireless AC router around. It may not be the cheapest Wireless AC router but it should be the cheapest Wireless AC router that support Unifi natively. The Xiaomi MiWiFi Mini is cheaper but it do not support Unifi out of the box. It is a cheap and great replacement of the router offered by TM.

Although D-LINK DIR-816L comes with support fast Wireless AC and therefore dual band ability. Unfortunately, it does not come with a Gigabit Ethernet port. Thus, I cannot test the performance of this router properly. It is still a great device as a secondary AP for your main router to extend the signal due to the cheap price. Dual band is very useful at places with congested 2.4Ghz.

DIR-816L comes with a lot of features but a long feature list is a double edged sword. D-LINK features are closer to the technical side rather than user side. The advanced features are extensive but you will not use most of them. You can even see what individual clients is browsing with this router. The DIR-816L support QoS, I recommend just stick with the pre-configured rules as it may be very confusing to configure.

DIR-816L comes with some basic cloud feature as well. There is D-LINK Shareport feature which allow you to turn this router into a file storage server. Nothing much to say here, the performance is just usual for the file sharing. Expect just around 10MB/s read and write. I am surprised what a cheap entry level router can offer. In addition, mydlink allow you to check the status of your router with an app. The cloud features are not powerful but it is there.
