Summary: Buy it, Take it home, Install it < 1 hour
Review: I picked this up at one of the major electronic chains on sale and brought it home and had it installed and blazing my internet connection to 3 computers in less than an hour. This thing is so easy to use, setup, and so inexpensive that it should almost be an impulse buy at the register. I impressed myself with how quickly and easily I could set this router up. Heck it is even a firewall, which we all need, in addition to being a 4 port switch and router for the internet. I have a feeling this will last a good while to, thanks to it's solid construction.

Summary: Good Value
Review: This router was the most inexpensive, even without rebate, of all the competition. I set it up in 10 minutes and it works fine. It has more features than I can use and it's still the best buy. When setting up, be sure to follow the simple instructions.

Summary: Easy to use Parental Controls
Review: This was a simple to use and install DSL router. I have earthlink DSL and this router was able to keep my connection up all the time. The parental controls for this router were easy to setup and enable. I can block whatever sites I want so my kids wont see them when they go online. The price is low also.

Summary: Superb Firewall Control
Review: Configuring the firewall for certain applications is a breeze with the way this is set up. I just log in, click twice, and start entering in my info, click apply and I am done. The firewall I used to have made me click like 5 times, enter info, click apply, go to a different screen, enter in my info again, and click apply. very tedious. I know this isn't a huge thing, but this is what I remember most about the older firewall I had before this. It used to be a pain to add a user to my firewall, but no it isn't. I also like how small and compact it is in size. The price doesn't break the bank, and that is another thing I admire most about this product.

Summary: I have it at home and it works wonders
Review: I thought setting up my own home network would have been hard, but this was very easy to use and setup. It has been rather a more of a setup and forget about it kind of device. I really don;t have to do any tweaking, upadating or any monitoring of my network with this installed. I like it, my wife likes how I don't spend to much time with my network and more with her, and I am glad I don't have to learn much more just to make this work.

Summary: works well, install was difficult
Review: In the end, this has turned out to be a very good product. I would estimate, however, that it took perhaps 12-15 hours to get this router working in a mixed PC/Mac environment, due to some bugs in the firmware. It has excellent features, such as offering a solid firewall and DHCP server, and password-protected admin features. The documentation is atrocious -- they might as well have not included it.

Summary: I have one and it works like a charm
Review: I am not really sure how a charm works, but I know this works like one. :)
I was able to get online rather quickly thanks to the quick install guide that came with this router. I have been running this router for about 4 months now and it hasn't had any hiccups since. I configured it for my cable connection, it connected, and I've been connected to the Internet from then on. I've expereinced no downtime, and can share files, Internet access, and printers with great ease. This router is the most inexpensive out there and performs just as well as any other. i don't see why you wouldn't get it.

Summary: As a newbie to networking, I am satisfied.
Review: I feel like I made a good purchase decision because this router was so easy to learn with. I bought it about 6 months ago. I had 2 computers that had network cards in them, but only had one online because my DSL modem only had one port for a computer. Well this little D-Link box makes that one port into 4 ports, plus more. It also adds a firewall for security, which everyone online should have, makes the web based settings available for every computer in your home, and you can even filter out the bad sites you don't want your childrens computer to see on the internet. Bascially it has a standard parental control feature where you can weed out a lot of XXX sites bvy using certain keywords and filters. For the price, you can't beat it.

Summary: Well Thought Out Router/Firewall
Review: They thought of everything when they made this.
Parental Controls, Extensive Firewall Settings, Cable Tester, 4 Auto Sensing Ports, UPnP, and more. I didn't know this router could have this many features and still be at such a low price. I guess D-Link really know how to make them now. Getting this up and running took almost no time at all, getting it configured the way I want is an ongoing project. Only because everytime I get a new game, or new software, I just set my firewall settings accordingly. It all works great and I see no downgrade in speed, or problems arrising in the future.

Summary: Reliable Hardware Firewall with features ...
Review: We bought this to basically protect ourselves from the outside world. But we also want to be able to play online games and download some stuff with WinMX. This firewall/router has the options to where you can open up certain ports so that you can do all of these things and still be protected. They call it Port Forwarding. Just specify what PC you want to have access and what ports to open, plus you can even schedule it so that you only allow this program to work during specific hours. Speaking of scheduleing, you can set parental controls in a way. You can schedule certain PCs to have internet access all together during specific times. (example: I set my kids' computers to only have internet access until 9pm on school nights. Very handy. Thus 5 stars.
