  • Easy to set up, great coverage, quite a few configuration options. Can use in extender mode as well
  • Some might not like the bright color depending on where they're placing it
  • If you're looking for a fairly affordable router that's easy to set up and provides great coverage for your home, you really can't go wrong with the D-Link AC1900 EXO Wi-Fi Router. The easy set up, coverage and speed is why it earned a spot as one of our...

  • High routing throughput
  • Not that much cheaper than other AC1900 routers, No USB storage features
  • AC1900 class routers have definitely matured as a class and prices have come down enough that the DIR-879 isn't the bargain it was intended to be when it was introduced only five short months ago. For about the same or less, you can buy a Linksys EA6900...

  • Solid performance, Easy interface
  • Limited feature-set, Low port forwarding total
  • It's by no means a bad product; there are just better value offerings that do a whole lot more

  • "There's no denying this is an eye-catching, easy to setup router with decent specs, and yet you can buy something else without that bright orange chassis for a solid $100 less."...

  • Whether we're talking aesthetics or utility and performance of it, the DIR-879 is a product that resonates. A good router doesn't need to check all that many boxes but a great one goes above and beyond them. The DIR-879 is packing value in every sharp ang...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • 4 antenas e duas bandas Wi-Fi, Excelente software de configuração e gerenciamento, Visual arrojado
  • Não serve para quem quer algo discreto, Preço elevado, App do celular precisa de melhorias, Sem portas USB
  • O D-Link DIR-879 é um eficiente roteador para uma rede doméstica. Ao incluir duas frequências, com tecnologias de conexão WiFi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, ele traz boas possibilidades de um excelente desempenho ao distribuir os dispositivos entre essas frequências...
