D-Link AC750 (DIR-813) specifications

Body

The dimensions and design of a router can impact its cooling capabilities. Routers with larger dimensions may have more space for internal cooling mechanisms, such as larger fans or heat sinks, which can help dissipate heat more effectively. If you purchase a router online or have it shipped, the weight may affect the overall cost. Heavier routers can result in higher shipping charges, especially for international deliveries.

System

The D-Link AC750 router is equipped with Realtek RTL8881AN processor. The AC750 has 32 MB of RAM. Some advanced router features and software functionalities require a certain amount of RAM to operate properly. For example, routers with more RAM can support advanced security features, VPN services, or QoS (Quality of Service) prioritization more effectively. The AC750 has 4 MB of flash memory. A larger flash memory allows for more storage space to accommodate future firmware upgrades.

The process of upgrading the firmware on routers has become relatively simple and user-friendly over the years. The D-Link provides easy-to-use interfaces and instructions to guide users through the firmware upgrade process. The D-Link AC750 router comes with 5 V / 1 A PSU. This unit is responsible for providing electrical power to the router, and if it becomes faulty, it can be replaced with a new, compatible one.

Network

The AC750 router offers built-in security features to protect your network and connected devices. The IPv4 is the fourth iteration of the Internet Protocol (IP) and is the most widely used version of IP on the internet today. The latest firmware supports IPv6 protocol that provides an identification and location system for computers on networks and routes traffic across the Internet. The D-Link AC750 has 4 x 10/100 Mbps LAN and 1 x 10/100 Mbps WAN ports. LAN or Ethernet ports (RJ-45) are used to connect devices to the local area network (LAN).

WAN ports often require specific configuration settings based on the type of internet connection provided by your ISP. The WAN port on the AC750 router is a Fast Ethernet port, not a Gigabit Ethernet. The Fast Ethernet ports are capable of supporting speeds up to 100 Mbps, which is still suitable for most internet connections.

Wireless

This router has 3 x 4 dBi, fixed antennas. Antennas play a significant role in Wi-Fi performance and coverage. They are essential components of wireless routers that transmit and receive radio signals to establish wireless connections with devices. This router is 2.4 GHz capable. The 2.4GHz band refers to the portion of the radio spectrum between 2.400 and 2.4835 gigahertz. This frequency range is unlicensed and globally available for various wireless applications, including Wi-Fi.

The AC750 supports the 5 GHz band too. The 5 GHz band offers better noise immunity, less interference, and more available channels. The AC750 AC Wi-Fi router is backward compatible with older Wi-Fi devices that support 802.11a/b/g/n standards. The AC750 refers to the maximum combined data transfer rate supported by the router across all Wi-Fi bands. The AC750 is capable of a maximum throughput speed of 300 + 433 Mbps. The real-world speed of a AC750 router is typically lower than its theoretical maximum speed.

The TX power (20 dBm) of a router refers to the transmission power or signal strength at which the router broadcasts its Wi-Fi signal. It determines the range and coverage area of the wireless network. The AC750 router offers several security protocols: WPA, WPA2, WPS. The WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) was introduced as an improvement over WEP and provides stronger security. If WPA3 is not available, WPA2-Personal with AES encryption is still considered secure. The AC750 router offers WPS. The WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) provides a simplified and convenient method for connecting devices to a Wi-Fi network. Instead of manually entering the Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password, users can use the WPS feature to establish a connection with the push of a button or by entering a PIN.

Connectivity

The AC750 router doesn't have file-server or print-server functionality.

Administration

The default IP addresses of the D-Link AC750 device is 192.168.0.1. These address allows you to access the router's console login page. If you are unable to log in to the setup panel of your D-Link router, performing a reset can be a helpful troubleshooting step. It is highly recommended to change the default password of your AC750 router after the initial setup. If you forget the new password in the future, you may need to perform a factory reset on the router to revert to the default settings.
