![]() So as you can see, the technology definitely makes a marked difference. Compared to my old modem router, there was a noticeable difference and at the 4 metre mark, it was 680Mps and at 15 metres, 202Mpbs. At 4 metres away from the Wi-Fi router, I reached an impressive 904Mps and at a 15 metre distance, the device ranged just below 400Mpbs at 398Mpbs. Remember when I mentioned internet speed? Well, given that I only have access to NBN, which is 90Mpbs on a good day, I tested the DIR-X5460 through local Wi-Fi which is not dependent on the internet. D-Link also ensure the device comes with all the cables you need to get started as well. Everything is laid out well and easy to access. On the back, you will find a USB 2.0 port, USB 3.0 port, 4 Gigabit LAN ports, a Gigabit WAN port, the WPS button, reset button, power connector and finally the power button. There’s also six LED’s on the front which indicate power, internet, wireless 2.4Ghz, wireless 5Ghz, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0. While the product looks like some alien robot, the design is about maximising internet through your home and office with its six antennas. The only physical setup required is to connect the antennas to the router which simply screw in, plug it into the power and then connect the device to your modem. To connect devices to your network, you just point your smart TV or gaming console to the DIR-X5460 through their own menus, however if you have devices that support WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), a push of the button on both devices connect automatically to each other. The wizards for both formats are easy to follow and you’ll be up and running in no time. ![]() In terms of setup, this can be done via your smartphone (D-Link Wi-Fi app) or through your PC () and both options are very easy to follow. Powerhouse indeed! It will also check D-Link for new firmware, without any input from the user. ![]() Works with the D-Link Wi-Fi app for easy setup and enhanced parental controlsĪs you can see, the D-Link EXO AX5400 Mesh Wi-Fi 6 Router ticks all the right boxes for a Wi-Fi router!Īdding to the features is a powerful 1.5Ghz tri-core processor, 128MB of flash RAM and 512MB of RAM.Voice Control for an even easier home Wi-Fi networking experience.Supports the latest Wi-Fi security with 128-bit encryption.Increased battery life of connected devices with Target Wake Time technology.Backwards compatibility ensures support for previous Wi-Fi standards and all Wi-Fi devices. ![]() Intelligent Quality of Service (QoS) prioritises network traffic to minimise the impact of low bandwidth.Built in USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 ports to create shared storage.4 Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports and 1 Gigabit Ethernet WAN port provide optional wired connectivity.BSS colouring technology reduces interference in ‘noisy’ Wi-Fi environments, making more efficient use of available Wi-Fi spectrum.OFDMA and MU-MIMO technology communicate more data to more devices while simultaneously reducing lag.Dual-Band Wi-Fi with up to 6 simultaneous streams makes 4K streaming, VR gaming or video chatting a breeze.Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) technology provides faster speeds, greater capacity and less network congestion.Here is a full list of the main features of the DIR-X5460 Wi-Fi 6 is actually a new standard which is 802.11ax and theoretically can reach speeds that are 250% faster. However the theoretical next-gen speeds is 5,400 Mbps (600 Mbps + 4,800 Mbps) and while your internet probably doesn’t support these speeds, file sharing in your home or small office will be ultra-quick. Lesser Wi-Fi router devices would either maximise the bandwidth which would be a hindrance to others or poorly share it. It’s time to open up your internet connection for 4K streaming, online gaming and a wide gamut of other uses at the same time! However bare in mind that a DSL or fiber modem is required for this product which connects to the internet.ĭ-Link also state that the D-Link EXO AX5400 Mesh Wi-Fi 6 Router can simultaneously run up to six 4K streaming sessions which is very impressive, given the amount of bandwidth required for this task. It also combines some of the best wireless technologies together and delivers a consumer device that is perfect for a myriad of uses and if you’re sharing your internet connection, it will definitely make poor connectivity a thing of the past thanks to its next-generation features. If you’re looking for powerful Wi-Fi performance, then the D-Link EXO AX5400 Mesh Wi-Fi 6 (Model DIR-X5460) is the power-up you’re looking for.
