Features

Handle More with a High-Power Processor
With the EXO Series Routers, you’re not only enjoying buer-free gaming and lightning fast surng, you’re also enjoying features such as an integrated mesh for a higher coverage network, an automatically optimizing QoS with a built-in speedtest, an automatic rmware update system that ensures the best protection and the latest features, and compatibility with voice assistants. All this is possible with the router’s 880 Mhz dual-core high-power processor, 128 MB of ash memory and 256 MB of RAM.
Extend and Customize Your High-speed Wireless AC Network
D-Link’s Wi-Fi Mesh is a scalable solution that allows you to easily increase the coverage of your home or oce wireless AC network. Expand your Wi-Fi coverage by adding compatible D-Link access points. Mix and match suitable D-Link devices according to your budget and preferences to t any oorplan. Setup is eortless; conguration of multiple access points can be done in minutes.
Security for Your Network with McAfee Protection
Kick security up a notch with McAfee protection for your network. Keep your kids safe online with age-based proles and the ability to pause the internet when you need to. All this is part of the comprehensive parental controls oered by the McAfee Secure Home Platform. With the McAfee Secure Home Platform you can also take control of your devices and be the rst to know and respond to potentially threatening activity on your network, such as devices trying to connect to malicious addresses, or unidentied devices joining your network. When you are away from home you can also deny any new devices from connecting to your network. The McAfee Secure Home Platform works with Amazon Alexa to give you a new way to command and monitor your home network using your voice. You can scan your network, block devices, and get up to speed on your network notications - all without lifting a nger.
Easy to Set Up and Manage
Sharing your Internet connection doesn’t have to be a complicated process; just download the free D-Link Wi-Fi app for your mobile device and follow the onscreen step-by-step instructions to set up your EXO Series Router.
Always Up-to-Date with the Latest Features
The router will automatically check daily for updates to make sure that the device always has the latest features and the most secure rmware, and will install the update silently in the background.
Enhanced Quality of Service Features
The built-in Quality of Service (QoS) engine allows you to prioritize important trac to ensure that your favorite applications are receiving optimal bandwidth.

Section 2 - Installation

Installation

This section will walk you through the installation of your EXO Series Router.

Before you Begin

Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed area such as a closet, cabinet, attic, or garage.
Congure the router with the computer that was last connected directly to your Internet connection. Verify that it is connected to the Internet before connecting additional devices.
If your ISP provided you with a modem/router combo, you will need to set it to “bridge” mode so the router can work properly. Please contact your ISP or refer to the user manual for your modem/router device.
You can only use the Ethernet port on your modem. If you were using the USB connection before using the router, then you must turn o your modem, disconnect the USB cable and connect an Ethernet cable to the Internet port on the router, and then turn the modem back on. In some cases, you may need to call your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to change connection types (USB to Ethernet).
If connecting to a DSL modem, make sure to have your DSL service information provided by your Internet Service Provider handy. This information is likely to include your DSL account's Username and Password. Your ISP may also supply you with additional WAN conguration settings which might be necessary to establish a connection.
If you are connecting a considerable amount of networking equipment, it may be a good idea to take the time to label each cable or take a picture of your existing setup before making any changes.
If you have DSL and are connecting via PPPoE, make sure you disable or uninstall any PPPoE software such as WinPoET, BroadJump, or EnterNet 300 from your computer or you will not be able to connect to the Internet.

Wireless Installation Considerations

The D-Link wireless router lets you access your network using a wireless connection from virtually anywhere within the operating range of your wireless network. Keep in mind that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the D-Link router and other network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (0.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters) thick. Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
3. Building materials make a dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative eect on range. Try to position access points, wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways. Materials and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh tanks), mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.
4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4 GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such as ceiling fans, lights, and home security systems), your wireless connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure your 2.4 GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless devices as possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone is not in use.

Mesh Network

D-Link’s Wi-Fi Mesh is a scalable solution that allows you to easily increase the coverage of your home or oce wireless AC network. Expand your Wi-Fi coverage by adding compatible D-Link access points. Mix and match suitable D-Link devices according to your budget and preferences to t any oorplan. Setup is eortless; conguration of multiple access points can be done in minutes as settings can be passed on to other access points once the rst access point is congured.
Wi-Fi Mesh intelligently nds the shortest/fastest path to your router. So even if you have eight mesh nodes, you can count on Wi-Fi Mesh to push your 4K streaming movies and intense VR games to your device at lightning speeds. Wi-Fi Mesh can also automatically detect malfunctioning nodes and reroute the connection to your working mesh devices.
The Mesh Network page gives you an instant, up-to-date overview of your mesh network topology complete with intuitive routing paths, bottle-necks and weak spots.

This Quality of Service (QoS) Engine will allow you to prioritize particular clients over others, so that those clients receive higher bandwidth. For example, if one client is streaming a movie and another is downloading a non-urgent le, you might wish to assign the former device a higher priority than the latter so that the movie streaming is not disrupted by the trac of the other devices on the network.
Under Connected Clients, you will see device cards representing each connected client. If some are o-screen, you can use the < and > buttons to scroll through the cards.
A maximum of one device can be assigned Highest priority.
A maximum of two devices can be assigned High priority.
A maximum of eight devices can be assigned Medium priority.
If no devices are explicitly assigned a priority, they will all be treated with equal priority. If some devices are not assigned a priority and others are, the unassigned devices will be treated with the lowest priority.
To assign a priority level to a device, drag the device card from the All Devices list over an empty slot and release the mouse button. The card will remain in the slot.
