The DIR-X1560 uses Wi-Fi 6's cutting-edge Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) technology. Small data packets destined for multiple devices are transmitted together & never have to queue up again. Perfect for Smart Homes filled with bandwidth-hungry Io T devices battling for bandwidth. MU-MIMO technology helps distribute the flow of data to multiple devices simultaneously. With Wi-Fi 6 technology the DIR-X1560 leverages OFDMA & MU-MIMO for better efficiency of upstream & downstream transmissions, unlike previous Wi-Fi 5 technology where MU-MIMO could only operate in downstream transmissions. This combination greatly increases capacity, coverage & performance especially in ultra-high-density environments. They put the DIR-X1560 to the test against nearest competitors & the results speak for themselves. The DIR-X1560 outperformed nearest competitor with consistently faster download speeds over greater distances, everytime. The future is unstoppable, your Wi-Fi should be too Wi-Fi 6 brings next-generation Wi-Fi technology into your home, giving the quantum leap in capacity, speed & range you need to handle all your Wi-Fi demands. Perfect for high-performance, device-dense smart homes. Next-generation speeds Experience up to AX1500 speeds while 1024-QAM boosts throughput to devices by up to 25% with 80 MHz contiguous channel width giving even more bandwidth. Up to 4 simultaneous streams let you enjoy faster, more enjoyable 4K streaming, online gaming & more. For wired devices, 4 Gigabit LAN ports give you faster wired connectivity whenever you wish, and a Gigabit WAN port is ready to handle high-speed broadband connections.

Extended coverage, reduced interference High-gain antennas, built-in power amplifiers & beamforming technology allow the DIR-X1560 to extend the reach of your Wi-Fi & focus a stronger signal in the direction of your devices to ensure a stronger, faster & more reliable Wi-Fi experience. Meanwhile a long OFDM symbol ensures even greater Wi-Fi range, especially outside the home. The future of wireless encryption One of the biggest concerns with Io T devices & Wi-Fi networks is privacy. The latest industry-standard 128-bit encryption is the most advanced security standard available & begins a new era of wireless encryption, ensuring greater privacy throughout users'devices & networks. Conserve energy, save battery life Target Wake Time (TWT) helps reduce battery consumption for connected devices by communicating with them & deciding when & how often the device requires data transfers. TWT increases the device's sleep time, therefore cleverly conserving energy & helping save battery life. Always up-to-date Firmware upgrades can be a pain, but with the DIR-X1560, they are completely automated. Upgrades are so smooth, you won't even notice them. On top of that, the DIR-X1560's Dual Image functionality saves a recovery image as a backup before an upgrade. So, in the unlikely event an upgrade fails, the system has your pre-existing configuration to fall back on. Virtual private networking your way The DIR-X1560's VPN Wizard lets you configure LAN-to-LAN & remote access VPN connections while its built-in passthrough feature also allows any devices connected to the router to establish outbound VPN connections. True Internet speeds without the guesswork Tired of internet speeds that don't live up to your ISP's claims? The DIR-X1560's integrated Internet Test lets you measure the true speed of your Router-to-ISP connection with the D-Link Wi-Fi app.
