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

 Second One Worked After A Lot of Frustration September 6, 2008
William E. Wedlake (Colorado)
I received the first wireless router D-Link DIR-655 Extreme N Wireless Routerand had a lot of trouble installing it. The install disk did not work, but I was able to get it working once I contacted D-Link for help. However, it only worked for an hour and then I had no internet connection. I spent a lot of time with Comcast thinking it was the modem, but hooking up a second computer showed that Comcast was OK. I then tried D-Link, but got a surley tech who decided that all I could do was fix my computer. I then tried CyberPower (my computer vendor) and got a very helpful tech who had me reinstall the network drivers (which took some time since my primary computer could not talk to the internet) and got it working again. With a good internet commection I was able to see that the D-Link router was not working (and somehow had corrupted my drivers). I used Amazon's replacement option and when the second one arrived I was able to use the install disk OK. I give everyone but D-Link an A+ for their support. With D-Link the first time I got someone who helped. The second time I got someone who decided not to help. Also, when you use the install disk it tries to install an additional cost program to manage the network. Since I didn't want this, I had to go to the manual and find out how to install without this additional cost program.
But it works. I sure would recommend trying another vendor other that D-Link however.

 Good router September 6, 2008

This router is very stable. I haven't reboot it in 2 months while my old Linksys needed daily reboot.

Old Smith (Yorktown, NY)
I have this product for more than three months. We (whole family) use it everyday and feel very happy for it. We locate it at the 2nd floor and be able to use the network in the basement. The speed of downloading or gaming is very good too. A neighbor living at 200 yards away could use our network too. Now let us hope this good product can last long.
Works like a champ September 5, 2008

Replaced a "hanging" LinkSys BEFW11S4 that need daily resets. The D-Link hasn't needed a reset and offers better N thru-put and WiFi range. Works with Mac's, Apple TV, PS3, and TiVo USB WiFi.
Won't go wrong with this September 5, 2008
R. Tung (Hacienda Heights, CA United States)
After wasted 8 hours on Linksys WRT610N router, I boughts this with PCMCIA card for one of my laptop. What a difference it made. Laptop is running at full speed with excellent signal. You won't go worng with this but here are some tips
- Do peel off the platic film which protech the router but covered the venting holes. Otherwise, the router might get overheated and reset
- MAC filter not only block wireless device like most other routers, but it also filter device connected to the ethernet port. I wasted some times here and eventually figure it out. Be careful here!
- Do update the firmware first thing you login to the router. Otherwise, do backup configuration before you do the firmware upgrade, Most of the configuration will lost and you would have to reconfigure it again.
- Use the web interface is much straight forward, insetad of the software that come with it
- Be aware of the default ip is 192.168.0.1, rather than 192.168.1.1 on most other routers.
-Do pick up Dlink 5 or 8 ports GB switch at the bargain price with $10 rebates. I ran a cat6 cable for my PS3 and many other device ( like NAS), speed is so incredible.
Love it.............. and you will
