Reliable Affordable QoS router
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This is a great router for the price. It's easy to configure and the documentation is pretty good. It explains the routing pretty well. What sets this router apart from others is the quality of service settings (QoS) that allow you to prioritize ports for bandwidth usage. You can set your streaming music or game ports to use a high priority and thus never get cut off by maxing out your ba...

CCIE VoIP Certified says this thing rocks!
This router hands down is a solid performer that beckons to be on radar. Configurability, performance, stability, firmware updates, D-Link has made a huge statement in a world of cheap routers that freezes, frustrates, and basically ridicules users that demand more out of their internet connection. Not sure if my Cisco CCIE VoIP certification makes any difference to this review but I can honestly say with what I do both at work and at home, I expect network device to perform to their specifica...

Sessions sessions sessions
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: I see too many people buying routers for gaming without having the understanding of what is needed in a router. Many of the routers out there do not support enough sessions. Online games stream their data out in many small bandwidth sessions, this is extremely hard on many routers, they may be able to handle the bandwidth but can't handle the sessions. This o...

I'm on my second one...
...and it is starting to freeze up as well. I'd avoid the H/W Ver A1 as it seems to be prone to problems, if their tech support is to be believed. Router works great, and does seem to reprioritize traffic as advertised... for about a day. After that it freezes tight as a drum (no response through the web admin page) and will only work again if hard reset. This is the second one to show the same symptoms.
On the plus side, a breeze to set up. One wizard and a plethora of configura...

Fantastic performance for the money
In the 4+ months I've owned this router it's handled everything I've thrown at it, without even a hiccup. DSL, VPNs, QoS, heavily configured SPI firewall & filtering, Bittorrent, XBox Live etc etc. And unlike some other manufacturers I could mention, D-Link continues to release regular firmware updates/improvements for their products.
The DGL-4100 has a very small footprint, generates next to no heat and its LEDs are blue and very bright. I guess the only word of caution I'd give i...

No lag with two PS3's, solid 1mb/sec PSN downloads
Tech Level: average
Ownership: more than 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great network speeds, easy to configure, consistent performance.
Cons: The LED's are very bright. They light up the entire room. All of our neighbors are 85+ and they spent 6 months speculating about the "blue room". Now that we told them it is our router, they speculate what a router is.

Router started giving me "CI"s in game
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: I have purchased 2 of these routers on huevo nuevo (New Egg) one for me, one as a gift to a gaming relative. For the first 3 months the router was solid and made gaming better.
Cons: After about 3 months, I started getting CI's (connection interuptions) while gaming. RTCW and BF2 on various servers. The problem would te...

None Better
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Best router available for gigabit network and 100Mb internet connects. I used to be LINKed into other SYStem solutions, and they have since let their product offerings die of old age, and minimum cost to manufacture ideologies. Odd how "some" of the router manufacturers seem to hide the internet connection speeds. If your one of the lucky FIOS service users,...
