Customer Reviews

D-Link DGL-4100
easy install and havent had one single issue. have my pc,360,and ps3 all running at once and not a single issue at all.

having trouble with GTA4, this is the router for you.
From the first time I got GTA4 I had so many problems connecting to a game, at first I thought it was the game itself but after doing some research found out my router BEFSR41 was the problem. So went searching on the internet and saw the D Link 4100 gaming router. I have a speedstream 5100 that I got from my isp which is not router friendly and just so amazed at how fast it was to get connected. DO NOT INSERT THE DISC, I know it says that but just go the internet address and do all the internet configuration on there it will save you alot of time and frustration. I was up and running in about 5 minutes, went to go check GTA4 and not one disconnection for about 3 hours, with my old router be lucky if I lasted ten minutes. If you have a wired connection and having trouble with your gaming then get this router believe me it is worth the $100 bucks. 10/10

Don't bother unless you feel lucky...
On 07-04-2008 I purchased the D-Link DGL-4100 GamerLounge Gigabit Router in order to upgrade our SOHO network to Gigabit speed and because we don't need wireless capability. From reading other reviews I had hoped this was a good choice. No such luck. But you get what you pay for - in this case it wasn't much.
Essentially Dead On Arrival, or more accurately non-functional it would constantly reboot itself (as some others have experienced.) I was never even able to get past logging in or attempt to update its firmware before it would reset - lots of blue light blinking. D-Link customer support had me spend 20+ minutes powering down, resetting, rinse, repeat, and then finally said "its defective, send back." So I did. I will not consider buying any D-Link products in the future. I would have rated it 0 stars if it was possible.

Amazon was great as far as making the return painless and at no cost me.

I ended up buying a commercial grade NETGEAR FVS336G ProSafe 4 Port Gigabit Firewall Router for about 3x the cost and have been reasonably happy with it. Netgear FVS336G ProSafe Dual WAN GigaBit SSL VPN Firewall
It does not have as many available keyword blocking entries as I would like, only 32, and its logging it a bit limited, but otherwise it works perfectly and has a metal case with a built-in power supply - one less wallwart - and a Lifetime Warranty.

If you're willing to risk wasting a couple of hours only to find you have to send it back, then get the D-Link DGL-4100. Otherwise you might want to look for a commercial grade product instead of a consumer based one.
