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...

Reliable Affordable QoS router 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 bandwidth. This alone makes it worth the price.
One thing to note: if you're on a Mac and try to co...

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...

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...

Excellent Router!! Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 month to 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Excellent performance and stability! Mine has been on the job 24x7 for over 10 months now. Still working GREAT with my Game Server and GameFuel prioritization is a definite plus. I've been using the v1.7 Firmware right from the start without any problems. The Gigabit LAN works flawlessly and FAST!!
Cons: Absolutel...

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...

Why don't You OWN this router yet??? First off this router is not just for games. This router has so many features that its pigeon-holed with that moniker. --- brIt has a built in NAT hides host IPs giving hackers trouble finding your computer and a SPI Firewall only allows in what you asked to receive which is great protection right out of the box. Also if you setup ALG only opens ports as they are needed for programs with the EASY wizard your security is AMAZING. --- brParents can also setup Access controls to filter out ba...
