TP-Link Archer C50 Wireless Router Fast Ethernet Dual-Band 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz Black ARCHERC50

Fast Wireless Speed with 802.11ac
TP-LINK’s Archer C50 comes with the next generation Wi-Fi standard – 802.11ac, 3 times faster than wireless N speeds and delivering a combined wireless data transfer rate of up to 1.2Gbps. With 300Mbps over the 2.4GHz band and 867Mbps wireless speeds over the crystal clear 5GHz band, the Archer C50 is the superior choice for seamless HD streaming, online gaming and other bandwidth-intensive tasks.

1.2Gbps Dual Band Connections for Lag-Free Work and Entertainment
The Archer C50 operates over both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, ensuring amazing wireless performance. Simultaneous Dual Band offers you the flexibility of two dedicated networks – with multiple times the bandwidth for your needs. Simple tasks like sending e-mails or web browsing can be handled by the 2.4GHz band while bandwidth intensive tasks like online gaming or HD video streaming can be processed by the 5GHz band – all at the same time.

2 External Antennas for Optimal Coverage
With 2 external antennas combined with high quality antenna technology, you can maintain high speeds across greater distances. This provides you with optimal wireless coverage and reliability from anywhere in your large home or office.

USB Port for Storage and Sharing
With USB 2.0 port, you can share a printer locally and files & media with networked devices or remotely via FTP server.

Security


Security algorithms

Security algorithms are used to provide authentication, cipher key generation, integrity and radio link privacy to users on mobile networks. The security algorithms supported are the ones that can be used with this product.

64-bit WEP, 128-bit WEP, WPA, WPA-PSK, WPA2, WPA2-PSK


Firewall

DoS attack prevention




Filtering




MAC address filtering

Security access control method whereby the 48-bit address assigned to each network card is used to determine access to the network. MAC addresses are uniquely assigned to each card, so using MAC filtering on a network permits and denies network access to specific devices through the use of blacklists and whitelists.




IP address filtering




DMZ support





Protocols


DHCP client

Whether the product features a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) to obtain IP addresses within a network.




DHCP server

A server is a system which that responds to requests across a computer network to provide, or help to provide, a network service. DCHP servers uses the DCHP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), which is a standardized networking protocol used by servers on an IP network to allocate IP addresses to computers. The purpose of DHCP is to automate the IP address configuration of a computer without a network administrator. IP addresses are typically selected from a range of assigned IP addresses stored in a database on the server and issued to a computer which requests a new IP address. An IP address is assigned to a computer for a set interval, after which, the computer must renew the IP address or acquire a new one.
