The D-Link DIR-828 is an advanced Xtreme N Dual Band Gigabit Router that supports 2.4GHz & 5GHz wireless signals at the same time. This allows the user to browse the Internet on one band, while downloading HD content on the other. A step up from the slower DIR-628, the D-Link DIR-825 is powered by HD Fuel, which utilizes superior technology to better capture and play high-quality Internet content. Plus, the DIR-825 utilizes advanced QOS technology to analyze and separate traffic into multiple data streams, thereby giving data-sensitive functions greater priority. Like its peer, the DIR-825 also includes SharePort technology, which allows a USB printer or storage device to be directly connected onto the network via the router. Additional features of the D-Link DIR-825 router include advanced security with WPA and WPA2 encryption algorithms, dual active firewalls (SPI and NAT), and parental controls. The D-Link DIR-825 retails for $159.99 and comes with a 1 year limited warranty.
