D-link DIR-655 WiFi Router - 4-port switch (790069304033)

Pros:

Fast router with far reaching ranges. Very flexible features. Backwards compatible with B and G.

Cons:

Bright LED lights drive me nuts. :)

After 5 years of service, my Dlink DI-624 gave out and I needed a replacement. I found the DI-624 easy to use as well as reliable, so it was an easy decision to get another D-Link product. Before the DI-624, I was using a DI-714P+ which was one of the ...

Pros: good hardware
Cons: buggy software

UPDATE Feb 2008: The router only works with firmware 1.02 with crashes about once a week and certain crash on big file transfer. I've tried it on all the new firmware releases, 1.03 through 1.11. None worked. As a result, I felt D-Link may not be ...

Pros: Great feature set and web-based interface
Cons: Twice the price of most good 54g routers

Since I do computer support for a living, I've set up a good number of wireless routers over the years. My experience with D-Link routers has typically been "ho-hum". They tend to be inexpensive, on the positive side, but lack useful features in the ...

Pros: Works with both Windows 2000 and Vista
If you have Vista, the setup is easy
Cons: The USB port software doesn't work
Firmware versions don't work with the USB SharePort

Bottom line: it didn't work the way it was supposed to so we're returning itWe bought this D-Link DIR-655 router for our two computers. One is a new laptop running Vista and the other is a 7 year old desktop with Windows 2000. Our two ...

Pros: Good guidance during setup, stable, easy to update firmware
Cons: Status lights are much too bright, DNS relay enabled by default.

My netgear wireless router died and based on reviews and recommendations from a friend, I selected this router for my home computing needs.  I purchased this unit from Tiger Direct. Within 30 minutes I had it up and running but over the next week, I ...

Pros: Works great with Xbox Live, no lag, no drops, FAST downloads.
Cons: A bit difficult (for me) to configure at first.

I recently moved and previously had a hard-wired internet connection between my computer and my Xbox 360. Now, my computer is on the 2nd floor while my 360 is on the first floor. I didn't want to run 50 feet of ethernet cable through the house, so I ...

Pros: Easy to set up for basic functionality.
Cons: Does not provide functions common to most routers in its class.

I have a lot of experience with wireless products. I have had several of them over the years, and have gone through the good days of no one having them to these days of having 30-40 pop up in your neighborhood. I bought this product so I could get ...

Pros: Easy to set up, great encryption, VERY fast!
Cons: Pricey, but you get what you pay for.

Aug 23, 2008 I have since purchased a second DIR655 for my parents and found a difference between the A2 and A3. The A2 has been problem-free. I haven't had to reboot it once in the 6 months I've had it. The A3 hasn't been so reliable, and I've only had ...

Pros: Supports current wireless standards including draft 11n, relatively easy setup, secure.
Cons: Setup menu is not very intuitive.

I performed a great deal of research before buying this D-Link Xtreme DIR-655 router. It seemed like people have great success with their router or no success. This one seemed to have more positive reviews than negative and it had the features I ...

Pros: Great looking! Customer support is friendly. Good instructions. USB 2.0 port
Cons: I wish it would work! Instructions are inferior to NetGear. Customer support has no clue.

I tried for about 3 hours to install D-Link Xtreme N Gigabit Router and could not get it to work. Called customer service. After an hour of unsuccessful troubleshooting I was told that my unit is defective. I returned it and got another one. ...

Pros: non
Cons: Horrible Customer Service!!!!  One of the worst I've ever experienced!

I bought this wireless router on the basis that it is easy to install.  What a joke!  I spend about 5 hours total on the phone with 5 different customer service representatives and my friend spend another 2 hours with them...they dropped our ...

Pros: The easiest network router I have ever set up and used.
Cons: none

After spending many hours reading professional reviews and their recommendations I found this router to be well ahead of the pack. I have set up networks several times in the past; sometimes the right way and others required professional help baling me out! I will say this was the easiest I have seen or set up. The instructions were clear, easy to follow, and really only took a few minutes to set up 3 PCs, 1 laptop and a network printer. WOW! Everything works great! After using a G system for years I must say the N is wonderful and fast. With N the new standard and the prices falling daily it is well worth the little extra price up front.
I don't pretend to understand all the specs and extra security that goes with this system; that is why the pros get paid! And this is one time I am glad I trusted them. I have been using it about 2 months flawlessly.

Pros: Easy to setup, Good performance, adequate wireless coverage.
Cons: Need more information for using the more advanced features.

Has all the advanced features I need. I like the parental control features and the ability to set it up for time of day.

Pros: Speed, compatibility, range
Cons: Setup took a few tries to get right. probably me and not the unit?

Used for work and fun sometimes both at the same time when working on multiple laptops. Good range in my home as well as outside working from the porch I still have full or almost a full strength signal.

Pros: USB sharing, and the Firewall and PAT functionality.
Cons: None, this is a really good router.

I purchesed this Wireless Router ~6 months ago, and It's a great router.  I'm an IT professional and fully use the firewall functionality and the port address translation tables, and they work great.  In addition the ability to share USB devices on the network is a great new feature. 
Excelent router, highly recommended.
