Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Avoid this product it's Wireless features are FLAWED
I had a D-Link Wired Gigabit / Wireless 108G gaming router, I had no issues at all with it, it performed perfectly. Recently I got an ASUS 1000H and wanted to update to a Wired Gigabit / Wireless n router and picked this one.

I never experienced the following issues with my previous router:
1) It didn't connect smoothly to my modem, but after I restarted both a couple of times it connected.
2) The router hanged in the first hour around 4 times, I had no clue whether it's the network, the laptop, my wired PC or the Modem and troubleshooting concluded it's the router.
3) I upgraded to the latest firmware as of Nov 2008, still tons of issues, it works after I reboot cleanly for 5 mins or so, then wireless connections keep falling very frequently especially if I'm using more than 1 wireless or wired connection, also my PS3 and Vonage were not performing as well as before.
4) At best my Asus Wireless n got me a 65MB compared to 54MB for my old g card, but the signal faded very quickly to 34MB. But as it crashes like 10 times within 2 hours it's not worth it. Switched everything to G and still it drops the connection with any mid / heavy wireless usage pattern.
5) Used back my old router and everything working like a charm, I'm returning this now.... likely those who like it have a single connection or not using /n in this case I advice them to save the money and go for a different router.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Easiest set up so far
after reading the previous reviews I did not bother with the automatic setup...just went with the manual and worked fine.

PROS After going through 56L 100 MB and now 300 MB routers this was by far the easiest to set up. speed is fine.

CONS Combined with the 141 USB adapter was hoping this would increase my range significantly from the 100 mb router to my notebook. No dice. Same distance as the old router which only had two antennas. Had to configure a port manually to allow outgoing faxes.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Exceeded Expectations
This review is aimed at enthusiasts or experts interested in upgrading the quality of their home / small office network overall. See other reviews for discussion of this router's wireless-N feature.

I got this router for its Gigabit performance. In past research, I'd come across reviews casting doubt on the reliability of the D-Link brand, so I'd avoided it. I got this drive on the confidence of the store rep at CSC here in Toronto.

It's been running for weeks with solid performance. As expected, all the wired computers on my network can now share drives with data transfers at local rates. Setup was straightforward.

The unexpected surprise was the extensive and generous control panel. Its built-in documentation is clearly and accessibly written. I was previously running the trusty Linksys WRT54G and was pleased with its control features. This D-Link control panel is more polished, more powerful and provides both broader and finer control. It also serves the control pages at Gigabit speed making performance snappy.

If you're already confident at customizing your own network, this router should meet your requirements. Even better, if you're a beginning enthusiast looking to learn, this router gives you room to grow in to and includes tools to support you in the process.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good purchase
I bought this product to change a linksys router I was using, expecting to improve coverage. I tried to get better performance changing the linksys antennas, but never could get good results.
My expectation was achieved with this D-Link router, without extra antennas. Good coverage and easy setup.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Only complaint :: super bright blue LED
The title does say it all. best dlink router ive tried yet. upgrade from 624 and any problems i ever had with that disappeared.
roommate put a strip of electrical tape over the lights to dampen their radiance. "wont u not be able to see the signal lights on the front of the router?" no, u wont, but it doesnt screw up much at all, so there has been no need for it.
