This router has loads of features, is very easy to set up, the box is responsive and on the whole it was great ... however ... my TP-Link Kasa Smart plugs constantly lost network connection, I have 2 in totally different parts of the house, they work perfectly and consistently with my ISP router, however the minute I wired up the D-Link router I had problems, they kept going offline and I had to keep turning them off then on again. D-Link suggested I disable some of the smart features of the router, but if I did that I might as well save money and get a cheaper router. In the end I had to return it and my Kasa plugs went back to working perfectly on my ISP router. I do not know why this was a problem or why only those 2 plugs were affected, every other light and plug, mainly generic Smartlife kit, all worked fine.
One star off for the fact it doesn't have the following options:
- Remote router management
- Lack of SMB v2 or v3 (SMB v1 got deprecated by Windows due to security concerns)
This is a shame considering the router has 2x USB ports, but the other options you can switch on are Media Streaming Device and an FTP Server, but these are nowhere as practical as being able to map a network drive over SMB and use it natively across multiple computers on the network. I was hoping for this functionality, but now I got to use a dedicated Windows 10 mini-PC as an SMB server instead.
For instance today it stopped providing internet out of all 4 wired ports, and the wifi was no longer working. I could connect if I plugged directly into my modem so it had to be the router. Rebooting it, no good. Rebooting it and rebooting my modem, no luck. Factory resetting it, no luck. I spent over an hour getting it back up and running. Had to reset it multiple times just to get it to finally get back to a point where it would connect. Honestly I'd be willing to give it a pass if this were one time occurrence. It's not. I've had to completely reset the router 3 - 4 times now after having it for a little over 2 months. Each time I have to set the whole system back up again.
The 2nd time I was having issues with it I contacted d-link chat support and asked about it. I couldn't access the settings from my desktop that was connected directly to the router but could through my laptop on the wifi. The support didn't see any issue with this after troubleshooting with me for 45 minutes. Why would you want to access the router settings from your desktop if you can get to them from your laptop? Ultimately they recommended I call in which was just as unhelpful as their online chat. Again had to completely reset the router for it to begin working again.
So all in all if you want a router you can depend to run for only a week or two this is the router for you. Otherwise I'd recommend finding something else. I would not recommend this router to a friend and I hope you have better luck with it than I have.
See transcript below.
10:37:13 AM [Me] I can't login to the router if I am plugged directly into my modem
10:37:35 AM [Me] should I plug into the router without the router being plugged into the modem?
10:38:16 AM [Maria]
what settings are you trying to configure on the router?
10:38:31 AM [Maria]
you can directly hook up your computer to the router
10:38:59 AM [Maria]
and internet won't be necessary -- just type in 192.168.0.1 on the address bar
10:40:03 AM [Me] the issue is that when I try to login to the router (which I need to have online for wifi) it pops up with "Device not found" then logs me out. I can't change any settings
10:41:22 AM [Maria]
using laptop connected to wifi, can you access internet?
10:41:44 AM [Me] yes
10:42:33 AM [Maria]
then use the laptop instead to do some changes on the router
-It has stopped ethernet drop outs on my laptop
-It has increased wifi speed on smartphone (80Mbs before, 150Mbs now)
-It has increased wifi coverage by about 10m
-It was easier to set up than I thought it would be. Scan code on app, go through guide and it's all done in 6 or 7 minutes.
I'd say that after initial set up - to go through the web interface on browser to change any settings as the android app seemed to rebot the router twice when I hadn't asked it to.
The only minus is that external harddrives attached to it via USB have a limit of 2 TB size, which means my 5TB HDD can't connect to it, but that's minorflaw.
For the past couple weeks wifi got much worse, it would be impossible to browse the web without the signal dying and then going on randomly. Overall it was starting to really question why i was even paying virgin media anymore despite the fact i KNOW for i have good internet. I pay a lot of money for it. The router was a complete bust
My connections the past couple of weeks were really irritating me, worse than usual. So i decided to invest in a router and after spending days looking around i found this one. I have to say, its really impressed me. You are able to prioritise connections too. So of course i made my PS4 the highest priority and going online playing fighting games.... its just been too good.
WHY DIDNT I BUY A ROUTER AGES AGO! best £80 ive spent in a while. Set up was so easy too, connect the D-Link to the router you own. When you connect everything make sure you put the default router you have into modem mode so you can use this new router. All your devices will disconnect since you just put the router into modem mode. Then when you go to connect to wifi setting you will see your new router, connect... And enjoy
The only negative thing i can think of is the tiny power wire for the router. Its really short so i had to change around my set up a bit
The USB HDD features are good but the transfer speeds to/from connected USB devices is slow as molasses (even on a wired connection).
I bought this based on brand reputation, reviews, and specs but it has been nothing but a disappointment. I do not recommend this router.
Aside from that, the management interface is ridiculously lacking for such an expensive router. Even in advanced mode you can’t do much more than change some basic settings through “wizards”. I’ve had the router for a few months and I’m finally sick of it, so replacing it with an edgerouter and unifi AP. Wish I just went that way in the first place, rather than overpaying for a low grade generic home router in a fancy plastic shell.
The first issue was that I didn't fully research the product and once I recieved it I found that it doesn't support AP mode and only supports router mode which wasn't suitable for my environment as I only wanted it for its AX wifi capabilitys. I worked round that by installing it with the DHCP server turned off and connecting a lan port tomy networks lan so it would just work as an AP.
This seemed fine and the performance of the device seemed great, AX devices (Oneplus 8 pro, Oculus quest 2) connected and reported a 1200Mbps 5ghz connection, streaming my desktop pc to the Oculus worked great..........until the next day where no device could connect to the 5Ghz and could only connect to the 2.4ghz. I rebooted the router and the 5Ghz worked great again.
Over the next week I found that some days the 5Ghz had disapeared, or my devices couldn't get an IP adddress, or they got a connection which reported 1200Mbps but the actual throughput was closer to 5Mbps at best.
I recently upgraded to the newest 1.3 firmware but the same issue occured within 2 days, so I am now returning it.
I assume that the device has some sort of memory leak which is causing the perfomance to degrade over time (it actually has a weekly scheduled reboot set as default) which may get fixed in later firmware but I'm not willing to wait for that given the devices limitations.
Going to go with a Redmi AX6 and see if that works better for a similar price.
I kept my old connection on my surfboard for guest to connect and turned off the 2.5 network so our personal use will connect automatically to the 5 GH network. I would definitely recommend this to my friends without hesitation.
D-Link defend problems.
The software is slow in accepting new devices onto the network. It would appear I have to accept it as a trusted device before it allows the device access to the network. Confusing I know. Basically I have to put network code into new device, try to connect, wait for the rejection, open up the software accept new device, reconnect the device and then it works ok.
I am extremely happy with this router my speed went from 20 Mbps average to 80 Mbps average. Comcast MA.
However I cannot get Windows 10 to access the USB port although the settings are correct.
There does not appear to be any support apart from web pages which only go up to Windows 7.
The D-Link forums are restricted to users in the USA ! !
There is no UK support at D-Link UK, only a handful of FAQs.
I am sending it back to Amazon.
For gaming it’s also great my ms is around 10ms where the virgin hub on witless sat around 40/50ms
However I soon started to see weirdness round websites not returning any content, after a lengthy process dealing with support and my own investigations it appears the router was corrupting DNS packets. This would be random.
As soon as McAfees was turned off the issue would go away, I was eventually given a new firmware upgrade to test but I was still seeing issues. I am now in the process of sending the device back to Amazon.
