Enterprise-grade Security with Deep Packet Inspection

Leverage Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) to automatically filter malicious traffic, gambling sites, and malware, ensuring a secure network environment. Beyond automatic filtering, you gain granular control to manually block specific apps, domains, or IPs. With a continuously updated security database, Brume 3 stays ahead of emerging threats.

Brume 3's DPI-based Protection for safe browsing

Full Network Visibility via Real-time Dashboard

Gain actionable insights with a visual dashboard that monitors application usage in real-time. Track traffic trends over a 7-day period to spot anomalies or bandwidth hogs instantly. It’s the ultimate tool for households and small businesses to maintain total oversight of their network health.

 Brume 3's dashboard for traffic detection and management

Eliminate Bufferbloat with Smart Queue Management

Enjoy faster, smoother connections. Brume 3 features built-in Smart Queue Management (SQM) designed to combat bufferbloat. Once enabled, it keeps network latency minimal even when the line is saturated. Whether for video calls or streaming, SQM optimizes the traffic queue for every device on your LAN, ensuring a responsive connection during heavy usage.

Brume 3's SQM for Low-Latency Networking

Dynamic QoS for Application Prioritization

When bandwidth is scarce, Brume 3 knows what matters most. Dynamic QoS intelligently allocates resources, ensuring critical tasks like video conferencing and online gaming remain smooth while background downloads take a back seat. It balances traffic on the fly to maximize responsiveness across the board.

 Brume 3's Dynamic QoS for Smooth Performance

Stealth VPN Obfuscation

Brume 3 incorporates advanced VPN obfuscation technology to conceal the telltale signatures of VPN traffic, enabling it to evade detection by DPI (Deep Packet Inspection) systems. Traditional VPNs can bypass basic firewalls, but are easily blocked by DPI-based censorship systems. Obfuscated VPNs, however, work even on advanced firewalls that block standard VPN traffic. By effectively hiding the fact that you are even using a VPN, it reduces the risk of being flagged, throttled, or blocked, resulting in a more stable and reliable connection. This makes it ideal for bypassing strict regional controls or for anyone seeking enhanced privacy and consistent, uninterrupted access.

Wired Connectivity Excellence
