Customer Reviews

The router has quirky problems
The card is fine, but the router has problems which we eventually overcame with hours of trial and error and time spent on tech suppport calls, where they knew less about the problem than what I learned on my own:

1) The connection will very frequently drop, until you update the firmware on the router.
2) However, if you update to the very newest firmware, post July 2005, you get other problems, namely: We have an HP Officejet networked to the router, via cable, with its own local IP address. With the newest firmware on the router, the printer's IP address and connection gets dropped by the router just as soon as the printer goes into sleep mode, which for us was after 1 hour. We shouldn't have to have the printer constantly on to keep a connection to the router. After MUCH trial and error, I was able to determine that if I went back several revisions, the printer never lost its connection even when it went into sleep mode.
3) WPA and WPA2 wireless transmissions do not work correctly with this router - the connection will either drop too easily, or it will not connect at all at bootup, you have to do a Repair on the wireless connection in Network Properties before it will connect. THIS is fixed in the latest firmware updates, but the prior networked printer problem exists. So we have to settle with the lesser WEP encryption.
4) Lastly, we have fibernet high speed internet connection, at 10-15 mbps, which the router and card handle just fine, but recently, our ISP is now offering 50 mbps. So we signed up for it. DIRECT CABLE connection to the router does give us close to the 50 mbps, however, the router will not transmit anything above 14 mbps for internet - this is whether or not encrypted wireless is used. The card and router boast 108 mbps LAN transmission, but it can't handle doing 50mpbs wireless internet. I have verified this with other g-mode adapters which are capable of 54 mbps, and it will only meter-out at 13-14 mbps upload and download. Most users will not have this issue, I realize, but I just thought I would point it out. There will be a day when these kinds of speeds will be available commonly, and this router is not the right device for that day.

Great product
D-Link Wireless Network Kit, 802.11g, 108Mbps:
I have owned this product for almost 3 years. I have had no problems with it at all. I am not a tech inclined girl and even I could get this up and running with no problems.

D-Link! Affordable and excellent quality.
I bought this to replace my old 802.11b Linksys routers. I was quite happy with the setup and it's fairly comprehensive options for a small/medium network. I was so happy, I use this for my company's 15 user internal network. Decent reception at 300 feet in between cheap/thin walls - maybe 2-2.5" at most.
Bought a couple more for backup in case of hardware failure; especially since I can always use the PCMCIA cards.
