No Problem with DIR-615 February 6, 2008 Billy Lee (Queens, NY) 33 out of 35 found this review helpful
I'm writing this review to help dispel the myths about this router. I read many bad reviews for this router after I ordered it. I got really anxious and started getting buyer's remorse, before I even had it in my hands. I received the DIR-615 today and immediately hooked it up, I transfered all the cables from my D-Link 'b' wireless router. I restarted my Time Warner Cable Modem and my Mac G4 computer. Everything worked fine. I checked the wi-fi connection to my iMac, which worked perfect, after I changed the network selection on the iMac. I then took my Titanium G4 Powermac to the second floor (the DIR-615 is setup in the basement). I got perfect reception 2 flights up. After checking all Wi-Fi functionality, I upgraded the firmware, from ver. 2.2 to 2.4 via D-Link's web site, all is well. no problems.
Check the date on these reviews. The firmware has improved things. April 5, 2010 J. C. Winter (California) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I bought this router and, after the fact, was curious to see how it was rated on Amazon. I was surprised to see so many negative reviews on here. I don't normally write reviews, but I just wanted to clarify some points raised in other reviews on here.
First, many of these reviews, both good and bad, were written one to two years ago. The latest firmware has resolved some of the complaints I've seen on here. One complaint was that it was not possible to use the fast N connection if you simultaneously have G devices running. In other words, having one G device connected to the router forced any other N capable devices to run at G speed. While that may have been a problem in the past, the latest firmware has made it possible to have both types of devices running simultaneously at their respective speeds.
Set up was REALLY, REALLY easy. I didn't even use the Quick Install CD that came with it. I had my desktop (wired connection), two laptops, Vonage, a Wii, and a PS3 all set up to run on this router in less than 20 minutes.
I've also seen complaints that the router gets too hot. This has not been my experience with it. I've had other D-Link routers before that got really hot, but this one's fine.
It's a really good router and a killer value at $49.95. If you have a handful of devices, want to do some online gaming wirelessly, stream Netflix to your TV, surf the internet, etc. then this router is an excellent choice.
Good router December 6, 2008 S. Thomas 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I've had no problems reported by others here.
I have hardware revision B2 with the latest firmware 2.25.
I didn't use the software that came with it just used a browser to configure the router. I had to select wpa/aes to get n speeds on my wireless pcs.
Setup took about 30 mins.
UPDATE
Since writing my review I ran into some problems. The problem appears to be with the DHCP server on this router. Clients are unable to connect unless you have DHCP turned on on the router, if you turn on DHCP clients loose connectivity after a while.
After some experimentation this is what worked for me -
- Turn on DHCP
- Once all your clients (PC's) acquire an ip address turn off DHCP and set the ip address on the PC's manually ( turn off DHCP on the PC but not on the router).
- On the router add all your PC's to the DHCP reservations list You will find this under Network Setup.
This seems to be be working for me for over a month.
Great! Easy Setup. April 8, 2009 LINDA M. LAROCK (Northern New York) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I was concerned I would struggle with the set up but it took less than 10 minutes to set up and use. I followed the cd instructions and it was easy! Even the security set up was a breeze! Great range. Very pleased.
Great Router, Easy Set-Up August 24, 2008 J. Fukuda (Seattle, WA USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Despite the many neutral to negative reviews, I'm having a very positive experience with this router. It was easy to set-up and install (I didn't have to use the install CD). I recommend using the install CD if you're unfamiliar with basic networking. I'm not by any means a network genius.
My favorite features was the automatic recognition of my SlingBox Pro and XBOX 360. On my previous router (Actiontec) I had to find tutorials by the manufacturers in order to manually input the correct port forwarding settings. This DLink automatically recognized and I'm guessing set the correct port forwarding information because both work perfectly.
For $39.99 (Amazon.com, Circuit City as of 8/24/08) this N router is a steal!
So far so good, the only thing I'll be concerned about is the quality - some previous reviewers mentioned that it worked, but then it broke...
Overall, highly recommended.
