  • The D-Link EXO is quite an interesting router in that while it is a full-fledged AC1900 solution, the platform underneath is quite new, to me at least. One thing I can say is the router is built really well as I would expect from D-Link, and while the an...

  • Summarizing the results of the measured speeds tests, we can see that on the 2,4GHz frequency, the Fritz!Box 3490 is the fastest router showing speeds of 128 Mbit/s on average. Second is the DIR-879 by D-Link (average of 125 Mbit/s) and the Linksys EA7500...

  • Compact, Original looks, Dual band WiFi, Great range
  • No USB ports, Is nose light like the 869
  • I liked the D-Link DIR-869 but found it lacking slightly in grunt. The DIR-879 might look the same but it certainly has it where it counts – apart from the lack of USB/SD ports.True, it will be noticeable wherever you put it thanks to its angular design a...

  • Rendimiento excelente LANLAN en todas las mediciones menos la prueba 1.000 hilos TCP que no ha sido capaz de pasarla, en la vida real nunca llegaremos a este número de conexiones en la red local doméstica, Rendimiento excelente LANWAN en todas las medicio
  • Precio: Este equipo es 40€ más caro que el DIR869 y solo ha mejorado el rendimiento LAN y WAN con respecto a él, en lo demás lo iguala o es algo peor, No incorpora puertos USB 2.0 ni USB 3.0, No tiene servidor VPN de tipo L2TP/IPsec, como sí tiene su herm
  • D-Link ha lanzado la gama EXO no para sustituir el router que nos proporciona el ISP, sino para complementarlo. Esta nueva gama EXO son equipos que cuestan algo menos que los routers normales y que no tienen puertos USB, están centrados específicamente en...
