New D Link Dir-827 and Dir-857: The First Wireless Routers With a Usb 3.0 Port

Being able to share an external warehouse attached to the wireless router is an advantage to preserve your multimedia wireless environment. This is particularly advantageous if your wireless router supports a built-in media server. Wireless routers with a built-in media server allow you to stream multimedia files stored in the attached warehouse to the Blu-Ray player, Xbox console, and Hdtv seamlessly.

Standard home wireless routers do not include a Usb port, but mostly home wireless routers which fall into high operation router class are embedded with one or two ports. Usb 2.0 port can deliver data rate replacement up to 480Mbps. If you have 5 or ten users or even more on your network either via wired or wireless connections way the files stored in the attached warehouse intensively time to time, you will perceive a slow operation in accessing or transferring the files to and from the storage. This is due to the maximum data rate replacement the Usb 2.0 expedient can deliver is up to 480Mbps. What if the router is embedded by Superspeed (aka Usb-3.0) port?

Intel specifies the speed of Superspeed port as fast up to 10 times as the speed of customary Usb 2.0 port with the data rate replacement up to 5Gbps. In Ces 2011 D Link showcased two wireless routers which are embedded by Superspeed port: the Dir-827 and the Dir-857 wireless dual band routers with data rate replacement up to 2Gbps. It's not as fast the maximum speed replacement as Superspeed port specified by Intel (5Gbps), but it is still as fast 4 times as those customary routers with Usb 2.0 port.

Both Dir-827 and Dir-857 are true simultaneous dual band routers with Usb 3.0 port but with dissimilar speed. The Dir-827 is engineered by wireless N600 technology with the speed up to 300Mbps similar to the Wndr3800 N600 router, while the Dir-857 is engineered by the wireless N750 technology with the speeds up to 450Mbps similar to the Linksys E4200 N750 router.

How do you compare Dir-827 with Linksys E4200 router? The main differences between Dir-827 and E4200 wireless routers are the speed, the Usb port and the guest network. Firstly, the total bandwidth Dir-827 can deliver is up to 600Mbps (300Mbps each band) but Linksys E4200 is up to 750Mbps. Secondly, the Dir-827 includes one Superspeed port but Linksys E4200 includes customary Usb 2.0 port. Not just that, Superspeed port in Dir-827 is powered by Shareport technology to let you well host an external warehouse or printer which can be accessed by users on the network. And the last but not the least, Linksys E4200 supports guest network to supply your guests internet way without compromising your underground network, but D Link Dir-827 doesn't preserve guest network.

Except the Superspeed port compliant, the D Link Dir-827 is similar to Netgear Wndr3800 excellent edition which the Usb port can be used to share the warehouse or the printer. Is the Superspeed port in both Dir-827 and Dir-857 foremost for your need? You will judge, but I prefer the wireless router which includes two Usb ports for hosting both warehouse and printer concurrently to preserve my "work and play" environment.
