The D-Link DIR-655 Xtreme N Gigabit Router is a draft 802.11n compliant device that delivers up to 14x faster speeds and 6x farther range than 802.11g while staying backward compatible with 802.11g and 802.11b devices. Connect the Xtreme N Gigabit Router to a cable or DSL modem and provide high-speed Internet access to multiple computers, game consoles, and media players. Create a secure wireless network to share photos, files, music, videos, printers, and network storage.
With some routers, all wired and wireless traffic, including VoIP, Video Streaming, Online Gaming, and Web browsing are mixed together into a single data stream. By handling data this way, applications like video streaming could pause or delay. With D-Link’s Intelligent QoS Technology, wired and wireless traffic is analyzed and separated into multiple data streams. These streams are then categorized by sensitivity to delay, so applications like VoIP, Video Streaming, and Online Gaming are given priority over Web browsing. This enables multiple applications to stream smoothly to your TV or PC. Delivering best-in-class performance, network security, and coverage, this router is the ideal centerpiece for your wireless network in the home or office. Backward compatible with 802.11g and 802.11b devices including game consoles and digital media players
Great Router
This router is extremely fast and has a great range. We have 11 guys hooked up to this router with great internet speeds. We were having problems with our linksys wireless-g (went through 2 linksys routers in 2 years) and decided to try D-Link. So far I have been very impressed. Hopefully we dont have to replace this one after a year.
Easy to install, easy to customize
Totally recommend this item. I have installed netgear and belkins in the past, for friends and family, and this D-link router is just as easy as any other. Following the quickstart instructions is just enough. I personally purchased this router because it had the shareport USB utility which allowed me to connect a USB external hard drive, that I can access anywhere from home, and it works fine. The only downside is that the hard drive is only accessible from one laptop at a time, which is fine for me at this moment. I hope D-link will improve this in the future. I live in a 1600 ft2 apartment and the signal is strong all the way to the last corner, at least 3 bars (out of 5). Make sure you follow the recommendations for the antennas and how to arrange them. It really makes a difference. Setting up a WEP-encrypted password is easier than other routers I had to work with. In conclusion this is a great product and I totally recommend it.
