Customer Reviews

Perfect for multiple connections
My initial problem began with me trying to find a bridge with multiple ports. This item was one of the few available out there to solve my problem of making my directv hd dvr and xbox 360 wireless (both items downstairs with router located upstairs). Once I figured out how to setup the device it worked perfect connecting to my wireless g router and i was downloading vod's and games on both devices with no problems. Although setup was a little difficult instructions were sufficient in helping me to get the job done. Awesome little device with not much competition out there. Looking forward to upgrading my connections to wireless n so i can make use of the faster speed on this device. Item keeps getting backordered so you know this item is one of a kind.

Easy setup, good range, does the job
Used to connect an Xbox 360 and a ReplayTV unit in another room to the home network. Setup up was incredibly easy using the One touch wireless setup connecting to a D-Link Xtreme N router. My house has a lot of interference but this unit seems to have decent range and speed. The only potential negative I can think of is the front panel LEDs are exceedingly bright.

Requires visible SSID
I'm using the DAP-1522 with a DIR-655 router, both updated to the latest firmware as of this writing (1.21 for the 655, 1.02 for the 1522), and found that the DAP-1522 absolutely will not connect to the DIR-655 (either via WPS or manually) with the router set to invisible mode. Only when I allow the DIR-655 to broadcast its SSID will the DAP-1522 connect. I hope D-Link fixes this in a future update, as I prefer to run the router configured for maximum security. Hope this helps someone out there not waste as much time as I did.
