D-Link DIR-518L
Wireless AC Mobile Cloud Companion

Wireless AC for Faster Performance
The DIR-518L incorporates the latest Wireless AC600 technology for increased range and data
transfer speeds to and from compatible Wi-Fi devices. By using dual-bands to reduce radio
congestion and interference, the DIR-518L can deliver a combined wireless speeds of up to 600
Mbps using both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Moreover, each band can operate as a separate
Wi-Fi network, giving you the ability to customise your network according to your connectivity
needs. You can even configure a guest zone to give visitors Internet access without giving them
access to the rest of your network. Combined with support for Universal Plug and Play (uPnP),

1. For a list of compatible 3G USB adapters, check your local D-Link website.
2. Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE standard specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental factors may adversely affect wireless signal range.
3. For an optimal streaming experience, 2 MB of upload bandwidth is recommended.
4. The DIR-518L only supports charging on the USB port (1 A) in Charger mode.
