It couldn't really accept complex passwords using symbols. Then it does not allow me to login anymore, and I have to do a router hardware reset.Other than that, this is the highest performing home router I have ever come across.
My only recommendation is to hook this thing up to a nice gigabit switch to maximize performance. It handles the priority listing very well.
It more than doubled my WAN speed from a previous router of which I used speakeasy to test with. Only expensive enterprise routers I have worked with could match this device.
There is only 1 flaw with this router. Multiple times I have tried to use a complex password and it appeared to save ok.
It also allow you to watch in and out-going port numbers on the fly, something lacking in many home routers.To top it all off, it has a clean interface.
Very nice speedy router.The only problem I had, different from my older one, was that I had to add all of my computer, printer and NAS MAC's to the device list before my network would boot reliably in the morning. All is well now.
I would look at the DIR-655 also. Also, it may be helpful to note that the 4 ports on the LAN side are the only GIGABIT ports.the WAN port is still 10/100. However, this router left much to be desired.my speed tests showed that it was slower then the D-LINK DIR-655 which is a wireless router. Its not a big issue to have a gigabit wan port since our inbound bandwidth is probably at maximum on 10-16mbps (cable/Comcast power boost).None the less.this is a good router and the limited QOS it has is excellent for gaming. HI,I don't quite see the value in this router, especially because you can buy a DLINK DIR-655 wireless-n router which has automatic QOS (quality of service) for a few bucks more.I basically wanted to get a wired router so I could plug my modem and my voip systems in my basement away from my home office.reduce the clutter. Then use a wireless router to create an access point from another location. The DIR-655 has all gigabit ports, including the wan port.
This router is easy to set up and works with playstation 3 nat type 2 with no problem -it was just plug it in and play.and it worked.I was so pleased.then the problems started.after the first day the router would not connect to the internet. i had to unplug my modem and all the wires and start from scratch to get it to run.and it would work without fail till the next time i started the computer or playstation.i would have to disconnect the wires every time and start over again.to me this isnt a router.its a constant headache.got another brand that works great at half the price not from d-link.please avoid this one.unless you dont mind starting from scratch each time you turn on your computer.or i guess never turn yours off.
I bought this for my xbox 360 and PS3 and it works great and is easy to install
