Simultaneous Dual BandThe TD-W8980 offers enhanced performance and clarity by allowing you to simultaneously run on either 2.4GHz or 5GHz bands. The traditional 2.4GHz band can provide better range and is great for everyday web surfing use but it is more susceptible to interference from other wireless devices running on the same frequency. On the other hand, the 5GHz band can provide faster wireless speeds and avoid interference so that bandwidth heavy tasks like online gaming and HD streaming can run smoothly. Now you can enjoy both advantages of the two bands by just having one device.
5 Antennas - Incredible Wireless CoverageWith 3 external 5dBi antennas serving the 5GHz band and 2 internal antennas serving the 2.4GHz band combined with higher quality antenna technology, you can maintain high speeds across greater distances. This provides you with incredible wireless coverage and reliability from anywhere in your large home or office.

Full Gigabit Ports - More Power to YouWith 300Mbps 802.11n wireless speeds and 4 Gigabit LAN ports, the TD-W8980 is able to support an extremely fast network that can power bandwidth intensive work or entertainment like lag-free conference calls, HD video streaming, or online gaming.
2 USB Sharing Ports - Easy SharingUsing the TD-W8980’s two multi-functional USB 2.0 ports, you can share printers, files, and media with different computers at home through your home network or you can use the device’s ftp server to share files away from home
Interchangeable LAN/WAN Port - Versatile ConnectivityWith its interchangeable LAN/WAN port, the TD-W8980 supports both ADSL or Ethernet WAN connections (EWAN). This allows you to have the flexibility to access and share different Internet connections such as ADSL, cable or fiber. This unique feature makes it easier for you to change to fiber or cable services when necessary.
