A community portal about Wireless LAN with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: A wireless LAN or WLAN is a wireless local area network, which is the linking of two or more computers without using wires. WLAN utilizes spread-spectrum technology based on radio waves to enable communication between devices in a limited area, also known as the basic service set. This gives users the mobility to move around within a broad coverage area and still be connected to the network.

I bought this 2 months ago, because my wireless 802.b network did not have the range to cover the whole house. I was hoping that this router would increase the range by 20 feet. Not so! Despite good speed (130 Mps), there is no range increase and it is maddingly slow. It is also hard to set up. Only buy this if you are an expert. I had to get an electrician to run cap2 cable 50 feet, and a Network specialist to add an antenna. The signal is still only 2 bars. He said I may need a repeater. The problem is that ...

Router works OK not great. Have to either restart or diagnose problem to reconnect everytime I use it and the laptop is only 5 feet away from router. Will keep it only because its here but will not recommend. Get a better one than this if you want to enjoy your router's performance.Get more detail about D-Link DIR-655 Extreme N Wireless Router.

No need to look further, this is it. This router has all the features and the performance one could want (at a reasonable price). Gives you a gigabit router/switch (the WAN port is also gigabit, unlike some other similar products), and trouble-free wireless-n as well. I always use the "manual" configuration modes, so cannot comment on the wizards etc. But I found the setup well organized and easy to follow. The advanced config stuff is separated, so you don't have to go there if you don't want/need to do so. Oh and by the way, you can also use this as a wireless access ... Read Full Story

The D-Link DIR-655 does not work as advertised. As a person who works for a technology manufacturer (not a competitive product), I can guarantee you'll be disappointed in this router. I did my research after my Belkin pre-N router died, and this one seemed like the best choice. After a quick & easy set up, it worked fine for the first 5 minutes. Then I noticed all 3 laptops getting sporadic covereage & the range wasn't very good. I also use a IP VPN phone at home for work, this direct connection also didn't work. I'd highly recommend not purchasing this product, as having ... Read Full Story

I originally bought a wired ethernet router from Linksys but was disappointed with the frequent disconnects with skype voice calls and needing to change configs to work with uTorrent. Then I tried this Dlink recommended by a friend who does a lot of gaming ... actually they recommended a different dlink router that uses gamefuel, but that recommendation led me to the dlink website where I found this one mentioned. It specifically targets p2p and voip use ... and wow they did a great job. All I had to do was hook it up and follow the simple wizard to get it working. No ... Read Full Story
