TP-LINK's N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router
TD-W8980 is an incredibly robust all-in-one device which contains
features of an ADSL2+ Modem, a N600 Dual Band Router, a 4-Port
Gigabit Switch, and a USB Print Server. It saves your budget and
space in contrast to buying several devices separately. The
downstream bandwidth of the modem can reach up to 24 Mbps,
meeting the needs for most home and office service plans.
Simultaneous Dual Band — More Bandwidth, Less Interference
----------------------------------------------------------
Two separate wireless networks are broadcasted on 2.4 GHz and 5
GHz simultaneously with up to 300 Mbps over each band. The
traditional 2.4 GHz band provides larger range and is great for
basic Internet uses, while the 5 GHz band gives faster wireless
speed and handles bandwidth-heavy tasks like online gaming and HD
streaming. Now you can enjoy both advantages of the two bands by
just having one device.
Full Gigabit Ports — More Power to You
--------------------------------------
The 4-port built-in switch of the TD-W8980 transfers data at up
to 1000 Mbps, which is ideal for your wired network. You can use
the Ethernet ports for printer, NAS, TV, and other network
devices so that users can all share those devices through the
wireless or wired connection.
Two USB Ports — Easy Sharing
----------------------------
* Share a Printer. It is common that multiple users share the
same printer in the network. With the TL-WR1043ND, you can simply
connect your printer to the USB port on the back of the router
and print wirelessly.
* Share Files & Media. Attach a storage device such as a flash
drive or hard drive to the router, and users in the local network
can all get access to the files saved in the drive. The router
also has a built-in FTP server so that users can visit the
storage device remotely.
Two Work Modes for Flexible Uses
--------------------------------
The TD-W8980 provides two work modes to choose from: ADSL Modem
Router Mode and Wireless Router Mode. If you are using ADSL
service to get Internet, select the first mode. If you are using
a cable, fiber, or other types of Internet service, select the
second mode and configure it as a pure wireless router. Such
flexibility saves your investment and is useful when you decide
to change your service provider.
Easy To Use
-----------
The TD-W8980 comes with a Quick Setup Wizard in its Web
management page that leads you through a step-by-step process to
set up your modem router. You don't need to install any software
or use a CD to finish the setup. Within minutes, your modem
router will be up and running.
