Summary: It worked on the second try...
Review: Network hardware advertisements are chock full of plug and play claims. In most cases things come up automatically only in a perfect network. And any time you are trying to integrate a Playstation 2 into a mixed Mac and PC wireless network you are far from perfect.After one struggle with the game connector created by the company that made all of the other non-Mac parts of my network, I was completely sure that my PS-2 was never going to see my cable connection in a million years. That one didn't do what it said it would do, took inordinate amounts of setup time and still didn't work right. Sheer stubbornness convinced me to try an ethernet bridge as a second effort. I selected this D-link model, brought it up and, despite happily winking lights, refused to talk to anything - no matter what I plugged it into. Fearing I was facing the same insurmountable difficulty I relented, and read the manual. Well, duh!! in about 10 minutes I discovered that the 810+ was using 192.168.0.30 as an address, and my subnet was set up for 192.168.1.x as the subnet. Using my portable, I disabled DHCP, changed the subnet and linked it directly to the 810+. Much to my surprise and delight, there was the administration screen, and I promptly changed the 810+'s subnet. I returned the portable to DHCP, reset the network (and detached the 810+, and there it was, live on the line. The 810+ may be a bit cheaply made for it's price, but the simple fact is that I did get it to work with only a moderate amount of effort. It has a good management console built right in, a straightforward manual on CD and, above all, it does the job.

Summary: Owned one momentarily. Glad it's gone.
Review: Out of box, it required a firmware upgrade to be configured with any browser other than Internet Explorer. Not a pleasant start. After configuration, caused packet chorusing on my 802.11b ad-hoc network. Ping it, get 1, 2 or 10 packets returned. Not good. And the connection losses... let it idle for awhile, and the connection dropped, requiring power cycle to restore operation. Buy the Linksys WET11 instead. I returned the D-Link, bought the Linksys, and left the problems behind.

Summary: D-Link bridge
Review: So far I have had no problems with the bridge. It was actually very easy to set up. I do recommend buying the same company's router just because I think that might of made configuring the bridge a little easier, but overall I'm happy with the bridge.

Summary: can you connect this to a hub
Review: This bridge worked great right out of the box and synched with the D-link AirPlus Router immediately. And contrary to one review, you can use this bridge with a hub to connect an established wired network, just make sure that if you have mac filtering on that you include the mac addresses of all the computers on the hub. I use this in a home network and haven't had any problems so far. My only complaint is the user interface isn't as user friendly as it should be, and for the average user who wants to set up security, it may throw them off a little.

Summary: Imcompatible with Dlink 1000AP
Review: This DWL810+ is cheap in price but poor in
compatibility. I tried it with my Dlink 1000AP
and it does NOT work at all.
The datasheet does not inform buyers of compatibility
problem.
Dlink tech support had no clue about this problem
in their database.
I feel like I am beta testing a product for Dlink.
I am returning this product today.

Summary: SIMPLY THE BEST
Review: THIS PRODUCT IS GREAT!! ONE SMALL LITTLE PROBLEM, WHICH I WILL TALK ABOPUT NOW. AS SOON AS YOU GET IT, HOOK IT UP TO A FREE PORT ON YOUR ROUTER, AND DOWNLOAD THE UPDATED FIRMWARE SOFTWARE FROM DLINKS WEBSITE. THEN LEAVE IT PLUUGED IT, AND COMPLETE THE SIMPLE CONFIG WIZARD. THATS IT, THEN YOU CAN USE IT. IT WOULD BE NICE IF IT CAME WITH THE UPDATED SOFTWARE (I THINK THE CURRENT SOFTWARE ONLY WORKS WITH DLINK ROUTERS) AFTER YOU GET AROUND THIS, YOU CAN PLAY PLAYSTATION ALL NIGHT ONLINE WITH PEOPLE FROM HALFWAY AROUND THE WORLD, COOL!

Review: Why can't someone state definitely that this can be connected to a hub to bridge multiple devices simultaneously

Summary: Works Nicely with XBOX
Review: Works well with my XBOX and D-Link router which is approximately 50 feet and 2 walls away. Did not notice any lag during game play. One problem I had was configuring it via a laptop, I spent over an hour trying to make the bridge connect to the router with no success. When I tried the same by connecting the bridge to my desktop everything configured perfectly right away.
