DIR-655 Wireless N Gigabit Router Description
For users that need a higher-performing network router, the DIR-655 Wireless N Gigabit Router combines a wireless access point with the function of a Cable/DSL router in a compact device. The router lets you share your Internet connection over a wireless network (802.11) or via wired Gigabit Ethernet (four RJ-45 ports). You can share high-speed internet with everyone when you connect it to a cable or DSL modem. It offers a Wi-Fi rate of up to 300 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band. It also combines high-speed 802.11ac Wi-Fi, dual-band technology, and Gigabit Ethernet connections to give small and medium-sized businesses a streamlined, convenient, and adaptable networking experience.
The DIR-655 Xtreme N Gigabit Router offers faster speeds, better range, and improved reliability, making it perfect for home and small office coverage. The SharePort Network USB Utility lets you attach an external hard drive or multifunction printer to the router's USB port to share disc space, print, and scan with family or friends. This USB connection supports D-Link 3G adapters, so you can connect your router to a 3G mobile service to give group Internet access when travelling.
Wireless N technology
Share high-speed Internet access throughout your home or office with multiple computers, game consoles, or media players using the DIR-655 router. It is an 802.11n-compliant device that can deliver fourteen times faster speeds and six times the range of 802.11g devices while remaining backwards-compatible with 802.11g and 802.11b devices. It provides a robust and reliable wireless connection that allows you to stream HD videos, play online games, and download large files with less buffering. Its innovative three external antennas ensure excellent coverage throughout your home with no dead zones.


High-Speed Wired Connections
The DIR-655 features four Gigabit Ethernet ports that allow you to establish high-speed connections to devices without Wi-Fi capabilities. The Gigabit Ethernet supports data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbps, making it ideal for activities that demand low latency and minimal delay, such as online gaming or transferring large files, to benefit from the router’s outstanding performance.
Advanced Security
The DIR-655 offers advanced security features with support for WPA and WPA2 encryption protocols, providing a high level of protection against unauthorised access to your network. The built-in Dual-Active Firewall also offers an extra layer of defence against potential threats from the internet. These security measures ensure your peace of mind, knowing your data remains safe.

Intelligent QoS
D-Link’s Intelligent QoS technology and Wireless Intelligent Stream Handling (WISH) allow for intelligent traffic prioritisation. These integrated technologies ensure that bandwidth-intensive activities like streaming HD videos or gaming receive higher priority. This results in smoother, uninterrupted performance even when multiple devices are connected to the network.
