Pros easy installation, low cost, long range
Cons occasionally hard to locate signal
Recommended it? Yes

Having long ago made the big leap from dial-up to a cable modem, I thought, as far as internet is concerned, I am all set. This was before I bought the D-Link DI 784 wireless router. Now I am not sure how I ever lived connected to cords like a marionette. Wireless really is freedom!

Pros SECURE SECURE SECURE
Cons Expensive. But then you get what you pay for.
Recommended it? Yes

Update: Well, it finally died on me: Oct 2004-Oct 2006. I had it on 24 hours a day :) Annoying thing is I bought a Trendnet Trendware 802.11a router as a replacement (primarily for the price).

Cons oled will not stay on the last page you viewed, display not customizable

I purchased this router two days ago to replace a new linksys unit that went awry. This unit practically worked right out of the box. I used my web browser and entered its ip address to access the menu's to set it up.

I really like the oled display on top of the unit that gives you... Read full review »

Pros Looks nice<br>LCD display on unit<br>Easy setup
Cons No simultaneous 2.4Ghz/5.0Ghz support<br>Poor support<br>High cost
Recommended it? No

A good product, however, a horrible 1.20 upgrade may render this essentially useless.  DLink refuses to accept responsibility for a bad firmware upgrade.  Check dslreports.com for information concerning this widespread problem. Read full review »
