 Best Router I've ever owned December 30, 2005
30 out of 35 found this review helpful
I've always sworn by Linksys and Netgear, but this past summer, I was pulling my hair out with VOIP problems. On both my older Linksys Wireless-G router and a newer Netgear WGR614 router, all calls over VOIP would end spontaneously after 5-10 minutes. It varied and improved somewhat when I moved to the WGR614.
On a whim, I purchased this from CompUSA. I'd had problems with D-Link in the past - two wireless routers in a row died in less than a year, just prior to purchasing my Linksys G-router. Oh man, how things have changed.
1) VOIP is given priority on this router. I haven't dropped a Vonage call in three weeks.
2) Where before my XBox live signal (XBOX360 w/ wireless-G adapter) was weak and prone to disconnection, this router provides a very robust and stable connection.
3) Both of my Apple Powerbooks connect without issue. I've had problems with both the Linksys and Netgear router and WPA-PSK implementation. It would often kick back my password, deny access to the network, or my Apple would wake from sleep and not be able to find the network. Again, in three weeks, both Powerbooks have connected within seconds using WPA-PSK.
4) It sounds stupid but...this router is attractive. No longer do I feel the need to hid the unit under a desk. It just looks...cool. LEDs are bright, though, so if you game in a darkened room with this router, watch out. ;)
5) More intuitive interface than the competition.
I've heard that D-Link provides weak support for their products, but then, so did Netgear and Linksys, both of whom I called about the VOIP issue and both, naturally, blamed it on the VOIP box. Hopefully, with such an outstanding product, I'm sure I'll never have to avail myself upon D-Link's tech support.
Sure, this router is MUCH more expensive than the competition, but it works as advertised, provides a better WiFi signal and, most importantly, its CONSISTANT.
Finally, a router that actually works as advertised December 6, 2005

I don't know what it is, but all the routers I've had have all been, well lousy. Random hangs and crashes, crude and sloppy software, moody DHCP servers, unreliable upgrades, garbage power supplies, and general bad behavior. Funny thing is, they've all been linksys, and they never improved. Yup, faster, and more expensive was the claim, but they all were just junk. I'd finally had it. Especially in a house with school age kids that learn to rely on the internet, and when it crashes twice a week, I become tech support boy real quick.
Now this router is another story. I'd started playing around with Gigabit Ethernet last year, for gaming and MP3 file sharing, and was surprised to see a router that featured GbE when I went looking to replace yet another failed blue box. Let me tell you, after some 6 or so blue routers over the past 8 years, this one rocks. It just worked, no drama. The software makes sense, and is not a sloppy mess. It upgrades itself it you tell it to. It tells you whats going on. Its fast. You can find things in it.
The power supply even looks decent. I've had some D-Link stuff over the years, mostly wireless cards, and I knew they were pretty good, but this thing takes the cake. It IS worth the extra money, especially if it lasts a couple of years. Highly recommended
Best router I've bought May 23, 2006

I really like this router. It has a lot of features and appears to be a great performer. You can prioritize packet routing from certain IP address, which I used to prioritize the packets from my Vonage adapter. The router interface is the best I've seen. The gigabit switch is great.
Works great for the 360 - NAT is now OPEN January 24, 2007

My linksys would sometimes cause my 360 to go to moderate on my nat for no reason - so playing call of duty 3 I would never find or get into matches.
This router easily has options to easily place the 360 into the proper port forwards and DMZ . The router has some nice setup features that the linksys makes archaic while the 4300 is more understandable and workable.
So if you have an xbox 360 and your nat is always moderate or strict and wont stay open then give this router a try - its xbox live certified .
Perfect for X-Box Live and Nintendo Wi-Fi November 19, 2005

I agree with all the preceeding reviews. This router is extremely stable, has a fantastic range, the blue LEDs and black chromed finish are beautiful too. Best router I've ever owned.
I'm posting here to add that (once you upgrade to the 1.5 firmware) this router works great with BOTH X-Box Live and Nintendo Wi-Fi with no additional setup. I even enabled WEP and there were no problems connecting to either service, all I had to do was enter the WEP key on the Nintindo DS and it was ready to go. Be you a router configuring expert or a novice, you'll find this router meets and exceeds all your needs.
