Section 1 - Product Overview Introduction The D-Link DAP-1720 AC1750 Wi-Fi Range Extender extends your Internet connection over a blazing-fast Gigabit Wireless AC connection of up to 1750 Mbps (Up to 1300 Mbps via 5 GHz Wireless AC and up to 450 Mbps via 2.4 GHz Wireless N)1, by using advanced AC beamforming technology to maximize the speed and range of your wireless signal. The DAP-1720 connects with your existing networking equipment to extend the range and enhance the capabilities of your home or office network. This means you can bring Wi-Fi to places where your current signal doesn't reach, letting you move from room to room, office to office, floor to floor, or yard to yard without losing signal. Enjoy Wi-Fi on your porch, balcony, next to your pool, breakroom, the far end of your office, or in your basement. The DAP-1720 prepares your home to become a Connected Home by allowing you to install more wireless surveillance cameras, baby monitors, sensors, and alarms in the places where you want rather just where your old signal reached. Featuring a 3x3 MIMO antenna configuration, the DAP-1720 offers better data rates, fewer dead-spots, more coverage, and higher reliability. Operating exclusively in the 5 GHz band, the DAP-1720's 802.11ac wireless connections avoid crowded 2.4 GHz band traffic, giving you faster speeds while still maintaining backwards compatibility with older 802.11n/g/b devices. The DAP-1720's superior design allows you to enjoy full motion, high definition video calls on your mobile device while moving around. Equipped with a Gigabit LAN/Internet port to provide speeds up to 10x faster than standard 10/100 ports, the DAP-1720 creates the best networking experience to date. The DAP-1720 AC1750 Wi-Fi Range Extender features D-Link's Smart Signal LED technology, which makes finding the optimal location for your extender a cinch. With other range extenders, it is difficult or impossible to gauge how strong or weak the connection between an extender and an uplink network is, but the DAP-1720's Smart Signal LEDs eliminate the guesswork by giving you instant visual feedback so you can quickly test out multiple locations to find the best place for the DAP-1720.
