Section 1 - Product Overview
Introduction
TOTAL PERFORMANCE
Combines PowerLine features and IEEE 802.11n/g wireless technology to provide the best wire and wireless performance.
TOTAL SECURITY
The most complete set of security features including Active Firewall and WPA/WPA2 to protect your network against outside intruders.
TOTAL COVERAGE
Provides greater wireless signal rates and powerline in areas where a wired connection would be beneficial like had-to-reach areas in your home 
for best-in-class Whole Home Coverage.
ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE
The D-Link Wireless N PowerLine Gigabit Router (DHP-1565) is a 802.11n compliant device that delivers real world performance of up to 14x faster 
than an 802.11g wireless connection (also faster than a 1000Mbps wired Ethernet connection). Create a secure wireless network to share photos, 
files, music, video, printers, and network storage throughout your home. Connect the DHP-1565 router to a cable or DSL modem and share your 
high-speed  Internet  access  with  everyone  on  the  network.  In  addition,  this  Router  includes  a  Quality  of  Service  (QoS)  engine  that  keeps  digital 
phone calls (VoIP) and online gaming smooth and responsive, providing a better Internet experience. PowerLine uses a building’s existing electrical 
wiring to turn any power outlet into a fully functioning Ethernet port and transform your entire home into a wall-to-wall network, instantly. Now 
you can take that same revolutionary PowerLine technology and give up to 4 of your favorite connected devices their own Gigabit Ethernet port 
with 500Mbps speed, and QoS prioritization experience seamless digital entertainment and performance anywhere in your home.
TOTAL NETWORK SECURITY
The Wireless N PowerLine Gigabit Router supports all of the latest wireless security features to prevent unauthorized access, be it from over the 
wireless network or from the Internet. Support for WPA/WPA2 standards ensure that you’ll be able to use the best possible encryption method, 
regardless of your client devices. In addition, this router utilizes dual active firewalls (SPI and NAT ) to prevent potential attacks from across the Internet.
* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g and 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, 
including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental conditions will adversely 
affect wire and wireless signal range.

Section 1 - Product Overview
•	 Faster	 Wireless	 Networking - The DHP-1565 provides up to 300Mbps* wireless connection with other 802.11n wireless clients. 
This  capability  allows  users  to  participate  in  real-time  activities  online,  such  as  video  streaming,  online  gaming,  and  real-time 
audio. The performance of this 802.11n wireless router gives you the freedom of wireless networking at speeds 650% faster than 
802.11g.
•	 Compatible	 with	802.11g	 Devices - The DHP-1565 is still fully compatible with the IEEE 802.11g standards, so it can connect with 
existing 802.11g PCI, USB, and Cardbus adapters.
•	 Advanced 	Firewall 	Features   -  The  Web-based  user  interface  displays  a  number  of  advanced  network  management  features 
including: 
• Content Filtering - Easily applied content filtering based on MAC Address, URL, and/or Domain Name.
•  Filter Scheduling - These filters can be scheduled to be active on certain days or for a duration of hours or minutes.
•  Secure  Multiple/Concurrent  Sessions  - The  DHP-1565  can  pass  through VPN  sessions.  It  supports  multiple  and 
concurrent IPSec and PPTP sessions, so users behind the DHP-1565 can securely access corporate networks.
•		User-friendly	 Setup	Wizard - Through its easy-to-use Web-based user interface, the DHP-1565 lets you control what information 
is accessible to those on the wireless network, whether from the Internet or from your company’s server. Configure your router to 
your specific settings within minutes.
•	 Faster 	Powerline 	Networking 	- 	 	 Built-in  PowerLine  Router  capabilities  work  seamlessly  with  D-Link’s  PowerLine  AV  adapters 
(must be purchased separately) that extend your network to the farthest corners of your home using the electrical wiring already 
installed in your walls. Simply connect your router (DHP-1565) and plug it into a power outlet to turn every other power outlet in 
your home into a possible network connection with speeds up to 500Mbps - fast enough to stream HD video and share large files. 
Since it is compliant with the HomePlug AV standard, you can use it to extend an existing PowerLine network², or simply create a 
new one. It turns every power outlet into a possible network connection so you can access digital media devices, game consoles, 
print servers, computers and network storage devices from any room in your home.
