Key Features

Mesh
Easily link to other VigorAP to expand the wireless network.

Assisted Wi-Fi Roaming
Solve the sticky client problem and improve Wi-Fi roaming experience.

PoE Power Supply
Simplify the infrastructure by getting data and power through a single cable.

Wi-Fi Scheduling
Schedule Wi-Fi On and Off to control wireless access and save energy.

Multiple SSID
Mapping Wi-Fi clients to different VLANs and have a different set of security standards

Local RADIUS Server
The internal RADIUS server allows user authentication for the wireless devices with a user profile database.

Airtime Fairness
Provide equal amount of air-time to all clients regardless of data rates, and prevent some clients from clogging up the network and to improve effective wireless speeds.

Hotspot Web Portal
Market your business and communicate with the guests while offering hospitality WLAN.

Band Steering
Redirect 5GHz-capable devices to the 5GHz radio to get a faster speed.

Central AP Management
Manage, maintain, and monitor VigorAP 1060C from the DrayTek routers.

New OFDMA Feature for 802.11ax wireless AP
Higher Transmission Efficiency with OFDMA
OFDMA has been used in LTE for many years, and is now available in 802.11ax for multi-user mode.

With legacy OFDM, each frame is transmitted across the entire channel width. When the transmission rate is low, this causes more latency and jitters and lower the overall efficiency.

OFDMA splits a single frame into groups of subcarriers, and each subcarrier can be sent simultaneously. With multiple access mode, it allows multiple users to transmit at the same time thus improving efficiency and enhancing user experiences in high density environments.

Third Radio for RF Analytics and Security
RF Analytics and Auto Channel
VigorAP 1060C has a dedicated third radio and can constantly monitor all channels for airtime availability and channel utilization. It presents 3 best quality channels for the administrator to select.

Wireless Security with WIDS
The AP constantly monitors the network for rouge AP. When an AP broadcasts an SSID that has been assigned, VigorAP 1060C will inform the network administrator.

Client Management with Captive Portal
Hotspot with External Captive Portal Server
Working as NAS (network access server), VigorAP 1060C supports the 802.1x standard. It can redirect new clients to the designated portal server to go through the hotspot login process and receive corresponding RADIUS attributes and perform bandwidth limit and time limit accordingly. This function is ideal for retail, restaurants, coffee shops, and hospitality to do WiFi marketing and learn more about their clients.

Mobile Device Management
Station List and Allow/Block List
The VigorAP records details of associated devices, including signal strength, airtime, link rate, data usage, etc. Network administrators can track clients' connectivity and activities history on a panel. Allow/Block Lists can be created with MAC address or device type options to block suspicious activities.

Nearby Station Analytics
The VigorAP records signal strength against MAC addresses of both associated and non-associated devices nearby. This information helps network administrators to understand signal levels and network conditions for visitors, and to modify wireless network settings, such as access or client messages, for their business or organization.

AP-Assisted Roaming - built-in in all Vigor Access Points

• Extend Transmission Range

When a Wi-Fi client moves out of its effective transmission range which is defined by the Basic Rate and/or Received Signal Strength threshold, the AP forces the Wi-Fi client to pick up a nearby access point with stronger signals thereby extending the range.

• Improve Data Rates

When the "Minimum RSSI with Adjacent AP" option is set, APs or routers on the same local subnet will exchange client information with each other and switch to the AP or router that has the strongest signal, ensuring that data rates can be as good as possible.

• Better User Experience

Instead of ineffective transmission with low basic rates or RSSI, the better links provide better user experience while saving the airtime.

• No Controller Required

Assisted Roaming is a built-in feature in all Vigor Access Points and a number of Wi-Fi routers; it saves the need for an ad-hoc wireless controller and is an ideal solution for simple network deployments.

Root AP for AP Management
VigorAP 1060C is capable of working as a Root AP to manage up to 50 Node APs within the same LAN subnet.

• First-Level Root AP

With mesh capability, this AP can work as a first-level root AP, and manage a number of wired APs in either AP mode, or in Mesh Root mode to synchronize with the mesh members. While this AP is ideal for small networks with up to 8 APs, it can also be deployed as part of a hybrid solution with AP management and mesh capability in a larger network.

• High Performance

Wired uplink can be implemented to ensure high network performance, instead of wireless uplink which may introduce delays and affect network performance.

• Auto-Detection

With auto-detection mode, the Root AP detects new APs and configure these into the network seamlessly.

• Network Monitoring

Node APs are presented with IP address, operating channels, SSIDs, number of clients, and firmware versions in the same page. If an AP is offline it will be easily identified.
