Funcions operatives
Wi-Fi tribanda:
The DIR-3040 operates on three distinct Wi-Fi bands: one 2.4 GHz band and two 5 GHz bands. This tri-band architecture allows for efficient distribution of network traffic, reducing congestion and providing dedicated bandwidth for various devices and applications. This results in combined Wi-Fi speeds up to 400 Mbps (2.4 GHz) + 866 Mbps (5 GHz) + 1733 Mbps (5 GHz).
Wi-Fi Mesh Technology:
The router supports D-Link's Wi-Fi Mesh technology, enabling you to create a seamless mesh network throughout your home. By combining compatible D-Link Mesh-enabled routers and extenders, you can eliminate Wi-Fi dead zones and ensure consistent, strong signal coverage across all areas.
Tecnologia MU-MIMO:
Multi-User, Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output (MU-MIMO) technology allows the router to communicate with multiple devices simultaneously, rather than sequentially. This significantly improves network efficiency and throughput, especially in environments with many connected devices, ensuring smoother streaming, gaming, and browsing experiences for everyone.

Figura 4: Visual representation of MU-MIMO technology, showing the D-Link router simultaneously transmitting data to multiple devices such as a smartphone, laptop, gaming console, and media player.
Integració de control de veu:
The DIR-3040 is compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing you to manage your network using voice commands. This feature provides convenient control over various router functions, such as enabling guest Wi-Fi or rebooting the router, without needing to access the web interfície o aplicació mòbil.

Figura 6: A group of people in a living room setting, with one person using a Google Assistant device to say, "Ok Google, ask D-Link Wi-Fi to reboot my router," illustrating the integration of Google Assistant for router management.
Enhanced Parental Controls:
The router offers profile-based parental controls, allowing you to create individual profiles for each user and their associated devices. Within these profiles, you can set internet access schedules, limit online time, and restrict access to specific websites or content, providing a safer online environment for children.
Manteniment
Actualitzacions de firmware:
Regularly checking for and installing firmware updates is crucial for maintaining the security, stability, and performance of your router. Firmware updates often include bug fixes, security patches, and new features. You can typically check for updates through the router's web interface under the System or Maintenance section. It is recommended to perform updates during off-peak hours and ensure a stable power supply during the process.
Reinicialització del router:
If you encounter persistent issues or wish to clear all custom settings, you can perform a factory reset. To do this, locate the Reset button on the rear panel (refer to Figure 2). With the router powered on, use a paperclip or a similar pointed object to press and hold the Reset button for approximately 10 seconds. The router will reboot with its factory default settings. You will then need to reconfigure your internet and Wi-Fi settings.
