I'm fairly new to wireless routers and I bought this to replace a Linksys that I have had problems with since I bought it. After talking with my internet provider and researching his recommendationas as well as other routers, I bought this D-Link and couldn't be more happier! The set up took about 10 minutes. The set up CD has clear and easy to follow instructions. The speed is amazing. I highly recommend this router to everyone and will.

This is my very first router and I am so glad that I choose this one. I have been looking for a router for quite some time and came across this one during a search. Although it had only 2 reviews I was sold. The set up was quick and easy and within minutes I have been up and running ever since.
