No bad review hereStrengths: Has just about everything you would need for a SOHO or personal router Weakness: Not to be too picky but the LED's are annoying. Also, there is a button on the side which is not documented, but seemed to 'clear' my initial problems. I have 3 PC's on the Ports and 2 portable wireless connected. Bought for $118(total cost) on Amazon. Replaced my previous DI624 which I had for 3 years and was flawless. I just went VoIP so I was looking for a router that allowed QOS setup. I have SunRocket and two phone lines and therefore two gizmos. I stumbled in the beginning setting up the wireless and the QOS. It kept resetting the...

Small BusinessStrengths: Dashboard, signal strength, configurability, autochannel selection, Wireless QOS, Built in Help (support). Niccccccce! Weakness: Only because I feel bad about not saying anything: Tiny LED labels, Price. I had recently been assigned the task of searching for a potentially scalable (upgradable to full N) small business router for my companies satellite offices. Having already purchased the Belkin N1, NETGEAR WNR854T, and the Linksys WRT350N I recently stumbled upon DLink's announcement of the DIR-655. Before I get to the qualities of the DLink I will share my findings of its predecessors. The...

DI-655 Xtreme N Gigabit RouterStrengths: Cheap! Gigabit switch! And Draft N including wireless G and B! Weakness: None really. Still haven't figured out how to use the USB to a NAS USB HDD storage. Not sure if it really does A great product. Other products that are similar are almost $200. I got this for only $109. Great deal. Works well. I had a Wireless G router and the wireless signal on this router works even better than my old one (signal strength and distance). I love the Gigabit ports too! A must have!

DI-655Strengths: D-link name, wireless N, Excellent range Weakness: pricey I bought this router to replace a Belkin wireless "pre N" router that was dropping IP addresses. I had purchased an updated Belkin router and returned it when the signal strength at my downstairs system was lower than with the old router. The D-Link router was easily installed with the set up software and easily configurable using the manual interface as well. I was pleased to find the range was...

Awesome Wireless RouterStrengths: Increadible speed and reach, fast fast fast, easy to set up, great interface Weakness: none that I can think of This is an amazing wireless router, I just replaced my aging Dlink wired router (worked great for 4 years) and my Linksys 54g access point ( what a nightmare!!!) with this unit. I have a desktop, a network printer, Dlink - Vonage adapter with 2 phonelines, Dlink HD media Center and 3 laptops connected to my network at all times and this router handles them like a dream. My VOIP is clear and fast,...

Da Bomb!Strengths: Easy Setup, including with Vista, using Network Magic (free version); Great Range; Great Speed; Great Reliability! Weakness: None I have found to this point. Our SOHO purchased this to replace a NETGEAR router that we'd almost always had problems with. We were having to reset it on an almost daily basis -- sometimes multiple times per day. I finally gave up on Customer Support after many calls and no help. Anyway, back to the DIR-655. It worked right out of the box. I DID have to follow the instructions -- yes, actually read and follow the...

Hardware Version A3 with Firmware v1,11 & Encore...Strengths: Very Easy Setup (use CD if your new or plug it in and goto 192.168.0.1 if you know what your doing), Feature Rich, Fast Speed, Doesnt drop signal while downloading with Bitorrent, Bargain Price Weakness: Overheats if you place it down on your desk horizontal causing the router to drop your internet connection (set it up Vertical using the stand they provide to stop this from happening). It works wonderful with Encore ENLWI-N PCI Adapters which cost 30 bucks compaired to D-Links PCI adapters that cost 80 bucks just make sure to download the newest software from Encores website. When I first set up the adapters I was only getting a Signal of 57-63 with the router horizontal on the desk but when I put the router standing up vertically and pointed the tips of the antennas towards...

DLink DIR-655 H/W Ver.:A2 F/W Ver.:1.02Strengths: Latest SOHO wireless router technology Weakness: None Found This device uses the latest DraftN and Intelligent QoS technology. It is competitively priced and so far has proved to be absolutely stable. It is easy to configure and the web user interface is very similar to other earlier generation Ubicom based products such as the DLink DGL-4300, Zyxell X-550 and Trendnet TEW611BRP. I am using it to route a Verizon 3m/768k dry loop DSL circuit to a 3 PC, 1...

Awesome router -- if you can get it to work with all...Strengths: LOVE the awesome blue LED's!!! Finally--LED's that are bright enough. I am ashamed to say I bought it partially for those... When it works, it works awesome. Weakness: If you have Vista computers and an XP computer hooked into the wired plugs get ready for HEADACHES!! I have 3 desktops and 2 laptops hooked into the router. 2 of the desktops have Vista and work fine. The 3rd desktop and the 2 laptops (wireless on laptops) have XP. The XP desktop does NOT WORK. The wireless laptops both work. VPN tunneling to work at home works fine. The one XP desktop has been offline for 2 months and I still cannot get it to connect to the...

D-Link DIR-655 Xtreme N Gigabit Router
D-Link just keeps upping the 802.11n ante. The Xtreme N is a vast improvement over the previous DIR-630 model. The DIR-655 bridges the narrowing gap between consumer and business Wi-Fi routers. In tests, it matched the speed of the DIR-635 nose for nose, running at 130 Mbps from very short distances with no interference, and a respectable 45 Mbps from more typical ranges and with other laptops in...

I wish I could go back to dgl4300
Strengths: Better wireless signal than dgl4300, easy to work with. Gigabit connection, low ping times, wireless N
Weakness: Glitches in firmware, Wireless N 1.0, runs kinda hot, range not that much better than wireless G. Customer support
I had this router for about 5 months and I think it was possitive exerience till I uprgaded to firmware 1.11 or maybe it started behaving oddly around then. Here's one problem that was solved. Router was making slow connection to some sites, like 1min to display a site. That was solved by changing wan speed from auto to 100m. Current problem under heavy network usage router disconnects...
