7 Features of the TrendNet TEW-811DRU

 
Wireless AC
With Wireless AC (802.11ac), you have the power to stream your favorite HD movies, videos and music over wireless. No more buffering or interruptions, with Wireless AC you can enjoy everything your home entertainment systems throw at you – whether it be your laptop, tablet, phone, games console or HDTV. The TEW-811DRU has a combined theoretical speed of up to 1.2Gbps when using both wireless bands.

Dual Band (Simultaneous)
Using both the 5GHz and the 2.4GHz frequency bands, speeds of up to 1.2Gbps can be reached. With simultaneous dual band, you have the ability to balance wireless traffic over both wireless networks at your choosing, making your networks even more stable than before. Try to keep your sensitive traffic types on the uncongested 5GHz (Wireless AC) band. This could be HD streaming, gaming or voice traffic. Other less important traffic can be kept on the Wireless N 2.4GHz range.

  • Wireless AC = 867Mbps
  • Wireless N = 300Mbps

With targeted beamforming, the TrendNet TEW-811DRU hunts out your wireless devices to detect exactly where they are at any one time. With this knowledge, the TEW-811DRU can force it’s wireless coverage in the direction of your active devices. This improves:
