Reviews for D-Link DIR-825 Xtreme N Dual Band Gigabit Router

Great Router

Strengths: Lots of options. Can handle loads extremely well, both WLAN and LAN. read the reviews at cnet and smallnetbuilder, this router works great.

Weakness: Not for the tech illiterate

This is a great router, it can handle everything I throw at it, including running DDNS (d-link provides this for free) gigabit file transfers, WLAN to LAN file transfers greater than 300 Mbit, uPNP, and more. It has backwards compatibility for older network protocols (important for old networked printers). I could not be happier with this router. It has not dropped signal since the day after I bought it and configured it to my liking.

WARNING: this router is for those who know what they are doing. Bypass the software setup and go straight for the onboard gui.

Poor Customer Support

Strengths: I could not hook this router up to my network to evaluate.

Weakness: Limited hours for technical support. Poor follow up by D-Link. I not only spent many hours online one day but sent emails which remained unanswered even weeks later.

The product may or may not be good, that I cannot evaluate as I could not get it to work for me in my home network. The area that I can speak to is that this company has terrible customer service and limited hours for its technical support. It does not offer 24/7 technical support like other companies such as Linksys. They did not respond to several emails I sent them to try to get answers to my set up problems. I would not recommend this company's products based on its inability to provide even a moderate level of customer service.
