Product Description
Create a wireless network to share high-speed Internet access with computers, game consoles, or media players from greater distances in your home or office. Using D-Link Xteme-N wireless products makes it really easy!
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

1 out of 5 stars not good   October 6, 2008
I had this for one week and had to return it immediately. The wireless connection was inconsistent and unreliable and one of my computers couldn't connect to it at all. But worse, the ethernet router was frequently dropping out and needing to be reset. When you're playing poker online that's not what you want out of a router. I'd say skip this and wait for them to make a better router. Ironically I also bought the d-link 5 port gigabit switch and that works flawlessly. Stay away from this one.


5 out of 5 stars Satisfied customer   October 6, 2008
This was my first time setting up a wireless network and the D-link Dir 655 Estreme N Wireless Router was easy to setup. It is working fine and the signal strength is very strong in my house. I am using three (3) computers with this network.

It is not cheap, but I would recommend it for the overall proformance to value ratio.



1 out of 5 stars Powerful enough to cover a room.   October 5, 2008

Pros:

1. According a website that monitors network equipment evaluations, 14 of 16 lab reports gave it their highest rating for wireless routers. For this reason, it is the "top dog."

2. The California based tech department was very knowledgeable. The Filipino woman really "knew her stuff."

3. The $100 price is very reasonable.


Cons:

1. The wireless waves failed to penetrate through two wall and a floor. After working for two minutes, the strength dropped to 25% and below. As a result, it was useless.

I have just downloaded SharePort and firmware upgrade 1.21 for my DIR 655 and now have a networked Brother HL-2040 Laser printer. Working perfect.
D-Link Rocks

This unit does not do what it says. It does not give you stronger signal than any other unit!!! The configuration process is very easy and user friendly. The signal is weak. For once I would have liked amazon to make an error in my order, they never do!!, this product does not work!!
