Editorial Review:

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

D-Link Xtreme N Gigabit Router DIR-655 - Wireless router + 4-port switch - EN, Fast EN, Gigabit EN, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n (draft)

I purchased this Wireless router for use in my New basement apartment. So far, it has performed admirably. I have not had to restart / reset the unit in over a month of operation.

The Interface is relatively easy to use, and I had no issues setting up an encrypted wireless network.

The Gigabit switch is a definite plus over some ... Read More

Rating: - Bad product no support incompetent technology
Dlink DIR655 extreme N router doesn't work as advertised. Tech support
is uninformed, naive, and unfamiliar with technology. DMZ doesn't work.
Firewall is undefeatable. Packets on DMZ placed IP node are filtered.
UDMP multicasting discovery protocols will not work properly on the LAN,
even with routers multicasting switches enabled. I'm suspecting that the
Belkin product may be a better bet.

It's fast, but tech support on this product is about on the level ... Read More

Rating: - Easy to install
I was so scare to install it due to the fact that I am no techy but -- very easy to do. I had it up and running in less than 1 hour. I was so very proud of myself and so proud that I purchased this router. I highly recommend it.

Rating: - Everything I wanted from a router
Before this router I had a Linksys WRT54G running custom DD-WRT firmware for three years. The router eventually gave up after lots of peer-to-peer traffic, and I chose the D-Link DIR-655 to replace it.

Setup for the D-Link was absolutely basic. The web configuration interface is extensive and easy to understand. I was up and running in about five minutes out of the box. There are a couple of annoying screens, such as the static list of 50 or whatever port forwarding rules, but most of the interface ... Read More

Rating: - D-Link DIR-655 review
D-Link DIR-655 Extreme N Wireless Router Very satisfied with the performance this N+ router once it was set up with proper encryption (WPA2). The only negatives have to do with the D-Link support staff. All my inquires were met with a regurgitation of information from the support site. If the answer to my questions were on the site I would not have needed to contact them. Recommend the product but only to those who are familiar with the requirements for proper setup.
