The Power-User's Router

Pros Gigabit, Stable, flexible control panel, price
Cons No DDWRT support, Shareport still buggy
Recommended it? Yes

Back in the days it seemed like D-Link made inferior products; in the time where the WRT54 was the king of the castle, D-Link was cheaper made, had a less extensive list of options available from the web interface, and generally was less appealing. Times have changed, thanks to products like the... Read full review »

Pros Price, configuration, stable
Cons less range than most 2 antenna routers
Recommended it? Yes

Rushing out to renew an agingWRT54GL router, I was pretty much left at the mercy of the local CompUsa, and their selection was for the most part way above my budget. Having paid $50 for the Linksys I was loath to get the same router at $80 so decided to take a chance on the D-Link DIR-601, which... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

I bought this unit on black friday at $20 to replace an old (but working) 802.11g D-Link router (DI-524) to hopefully add 802.11n speeds.  While the unit works and is an upgrade to the previous unit, I would hardly consider this a "true" 802.11n unit.

First, and most importantly, the... Read full review »
