The D-Link LTE Cat4 WiFi AC1200 Router (DWR-953V2) is a versatile and robust solution for providing high-speed internet connectivity using either a mobile 4G LTE connection or a traditional wired broadband service. It’s designed for users who need reliable internet access in areas with limited fixed-line infrastructure, or who require a dependable backup for their existing broadband.
Key Features:
- Integrated 4G LTE Cat4 Mobile Broadband: The DWR-953V2 allows you to insert a standard SIM card (often requires a micro-SIM adapter if your SIM is nano) to access high-speed 4G LTE mobile broadband. This provides fast internet access with theoretical downlink speeds of up to 150 Mbps and uplink speeds of up to 50 Mbps, making it ideal for remote locations, temporary setups, or as a primary internet source where wired options are scarce.
-
Dual-Band AC1200 Wi-Fi: It provides simultaneous dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity with speeds up to 300 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band (for general Browse and wider coverage) and up to 867 Mbps on the 5 GHz band (for faster, less congested streaming and gaming). The AC1200 standard ensures compatibility with a wide range of Wi-Fi devices.
-
Flexible Internet Connection with Failover: This router features a Gigabit WAN/LAN port, enabling connection to a wired broadband service like fiber or DSL. Crucially, it supports WAN failover, which means if your wired internet connection fails, the router will automatically switch to the 4G LTE mobile connection, ensuring seamless and uninterrupted internet access.
-
Gigabit Ethernet Ports: Equipped with one Gigabit WAN/LAN port and three dedicated Gigabit LAN ports, the DWR-953V2 offers high-speed wired connections. This is essential for devices like smart TVs, gaming consoles, network-attached storage (NAS), and desktop PCs, where stability and maximum throughput are critical.
-
External Detachable Antennas: Features two external 4G LTE antennas (typically 3dBi) and two external Wi-Fi antennas (typically 5dBi). These antennas are often detachable, allowing for potential upgrades or optimal positioning to maximize cellular signal reception and Wi-Fi coverage within your home or office.
-
Robust Security Features: Protects your network with dual-active firewalls (Stateful Packet Inspection – SPI and Network Address Translation – NAT) to defend against internet attacks. It supports WPA/WPA2 wireless encryption standards, ensuring your wireless network and data are secure.
-
Easy Setup and Management: The router features a user-friendly web-based interface and a quick setup wizard to guide you through the installation process. This makes it easy to get your network up and running without technical hassle.
- VPN Pass-through Support: Supports VPN pass-through for IPSec, PPTP, and L2TP, allowing secure remote access to corporate networks.
- IPv6 Ready: Supports the latest IPv6 standard, ensuring compatibility with future internet technologies and direct connectivity with other IPv6-enabled devices worldwide.
- Multiple Operating Modes: Can operate in various modes, including Router Mode (for combining wired and 4G LTE internet), Access Point (AP) mode, or Repeater mode, offering flexibility for different network configurations.
