Strongest penetration yet, perfect while waiting for 802.11n final! First off, I'll tell you that I live in an apartment complex with several other apartment buildings all around. My wireless signal is constantly receiving interference from my neighbor's wireless gear, cordless phones, and an in-town wireless Internet service provider that just happens to use 802.11b frequencies.
Initially, I owned a Linksys WRT54G and paid for the $70 "high-gain" antenna accessory, but I would still find myself having to change channels periodically throughout the...

Long Time D-Link Mac User I have been a D-Link user for several years. My children have used the Dl-614+ at college and configuration was never problematic. My home is a large ranch style house with limestone walls, and wireless router placement was difficult. I had to have an additional wired access point at the other end of the house for complete coverage.
After 5 years the access point died. Tech support suggested the new Dl-634M, and stated that the coverage was much better. I just installed it, configured...

So far so good. If you're here because you're looking to buy a wireless router and you wanted to check reviews on Amazon (and other places) first, you will immediately have noticed one thing: there isn't a single brand/model of router that doesn't have a fair proportion of contradictory reviews. Some people will say "Wow, router X installed in minutes and has worked flawlesslesy since. It's so much better than that piece of crap router Z." And then you read the review of router Z and someone says "Wow, router Z...

It may have worked for some, but ... It sure did not work for me.
Initially, I'll state that I'm sure there are those here who had a good experience with this product. I do not disbelieve them. In fact, I'm simply envious because my experience was pure dissatisfaction.
I am a professional and somewhat tech-literate. I purchased the router for the purpose of being able to use my notebook computer from anywhere in my home to connect through the DSL modem to which my desktop is connected via an ethernet cable....

I thought there would be more of a fight! The set up was on a Windows XP Pro home network. I'm famillier with computers and I'm not intemidated by them. I was expecting more of a fight with this project. That is why I waited so long to start it.
About a month and a half ago I purchased a D-Link wireless router, DI-634M. Last night I got around to setting up my network. I went through the router setup wizard and then installed the accompanied software, Network Magic. Boom, I was connected. I could see the desktop I was...

MAC Users info: What I've heard about Safari and the Dlink UI revolve around how Safari handles XSLT and some XML code. Try using Camino (or whatever the firefox mac version is).

Mac Users Beware! While this router seems to work OK, it cannot be fully administered from a Macintosh using Safari, even though D-Link claims Mac compatibility. For some unknown reason, the lists of machines and MAC addresses do not show up in the several admin screens that utilize them. After many attempts to work through the issue with D-Link tech support, I gave up. They do not appear to be able to understand, let alone test and fix the problem.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Comments: Ordered this week ago, did my pre-setup before heading to site. Onsite wireless failed. Can't see network at all. Called D-Link support. Worthless. Called newegg support to try and get a speedy turnaround on RMA. They don't do that. Approaching the final straw with newegg. Don't know if I will continue to use them or not. Prob not. Newegg is great when the are n...

Have never looked back! I owned a DI-624 for a long time. I would have gone completely bald except for the fact that I now own this DI-634m.....with the 624 rebooting every five minutes and me hitting it over and over with a hammer out of frustration, I needed a new router...so I took my chances and bought this one. Ever since the purchase I have NEVER looked back. Not only does it not reboot, but the speed this device gives even with WPA with AES is INCREDIBLE. Below I have included a speed test with the advertised 6m...

Excellent for Macbooks & Ubuntu We have 4 laptops at home. Our fun laptops are a Macbook and Macbook Pro. Work laptops are IBM T41 and T43. Running Ubuntu Server on the network as a means of backup.
When all we had were XP machines, our old router, a Linksys WRT54G was great. I flashed the ROM with some 3rd party drivers that gave us a ton of options for that router, my favorite of which was improving the signal strength by boosting the power of the antennae. That wireless solution worked great until we did the...
