Product Description
Wireless N Gigabit Router:
The D-Link DIR-655 Wireless N Gigabit Router is an 802.11n (Draft 1.0) compliant device that delivers real world performance of up to 650% faster than an 802.11g wireless connection and also faster than 100Mbps wired Ethernet. By connecting the DIR-655 router to a cable or DSL modem, users will be able to share their high-speed Internet access with everyone on the network and create a secure wireless network to share photos, files, music, video, printers and network storage throughout their home.
High-performance:
The DIR-655 features the fastest processor in the RangeBooster N? range, achieving ever higher throughput results between WAN and LAN networks.
Combined with the acclaimed QoS StreamEngine, this allows the DIR-655 to provide a better Internet experience by keeping Internet phone calls and online gaming smooth and responsive.
In addition, the router includes four Gigabit Ethernet switch ports for highest transfer speeds to other Gigabit capable devices such as a network attached storage device.
Wireless LAN Intelligent Stream Handling (WISH) technology:
The DIR-655 router includes Quality of Service (QoS), wirelessly as well as to and from the Internet (StreamEngine). It features WISH, which enhances the consumer's experience for gaming, HDTV and other media applications over a wireless connection by minimizing the disruptive effects of competing traffic on the wireless network. It automatically detects if audio, video or gaming content is being used on the wireless network and gives these applications priority over less time-sensitive traffic such as email or file transfers. It then adjusts priorities on the fly to ensure media content is transmitted without jitter or lag.
Furthermore, the router enforces a "good neighbour" policy, ensuring that it will not create interference for neighbouring networks. This is achieved by reducing the amount of radio spectrum used when detecting a legacy 802.11g/b network in the vici
Customer Reviews:
Good.......2007-11-13
the above device gives you everything that you... however yes their is a problem with the PPPoA. somehow it just does not recognise this configuration on my comp either. however all set aside the device is magnificent. my reinds house is around 75 meters away from mine and still i get a connection =) ..... good buy and easy to set up even for the first time buyers.
you do need to make sure however that you have a descent adapter if your going wireless... thats probably why some of you are having trouble receiving through walls.... hmmm somehow i find odd with having 6 walls and still letting me in with a 300mbg transfer rate.
the device is great.. awsome looks with its alienwear look alike grin. good product.
Pathetic.......2007-11-03
Oh this is great if you set it up right next to your computer but the range of this is really really poor. Basically, you can get a great transfer rate but if you got more than one wall between your computer and the router forget it.
My computer is within 10m of this thing and the range sucks. I went back to my trusty Linksys - I might only get 54mbps but at least I get a signal.
If you still want to buy this junk then look out for mine on e-bay/Amazon as soon as I finish packing it up.
Sooooo FAST.......2007-10-27
Set up: Its simply a case of plugging it in and running the setup CD. Even with my forgetting to turn the modem off and on again the whole thing was up and running in no more than 5 minutes.
Ease of use: I've yet to explore the settings in full but suffice to say they are what you would expect from a £100 router. I was quite happy to find this is the first router ive ever used that didnt require some kind of tweaking to open any ports to use with bitorrent.
Performance: This is the DIR655's trump card. I bought it because CNET and Tom's Hardware reckoned it to be the fastest 802.11n router they'd ever tested and it supports more multiple connections than any other home router too [i.e it wont overheat/crash if you use torrents]. So far i have been seeing wireless download speeds between 5 and 10 times faster than my old Belkin 54g could muster. Coupled with a Netgear WN311T PCI adapter it sits happily connected at between 250mb and 300mb with about 20m and 2 walls to pass through, and will easily match wired transfer speeds on my 20mb cable connection.
Dont be alarmed by the reviewer's poor rating below me. This is a wireless router, NOT a wireless modem router and it says nowhere in its description that it is. So long as you understand what you are getting you wont be disappointed.
For cable connections only!!.......2007-10-19
Be warned, that this router is unlikey to work with standard DSL connections and is only meant for cable connections (such as Virgin). It does not support PPPoA WAN connection (only PPPoE) which means that if you have a DSL conection then you will be unlikely to be able to use this router.
You need one of these!.......2007-06-14
With Virgin Media upgrading their broadband service to 20mbit my old Linksys BEFSR41 was in need of replacement!
The Linksys unit only has a 10mbit Internet port (the LAN side being 100mbit), even so I could only max 6mbit Internet to LAN (WAN to LAN). Take a close look at any router you have in mind for speeds over 10mbit Internet, most of the reviews I found in this price range show that on the bench they don't perform.
After much searching I found a review of the DIR-655, I didn't want wireless but for the price it does exactly what I need, that being:
Gigabit LAN ports (ignore the outer packaging which claims 10/100!?!)
A Gigabit WAN port (for when we go 100+)
Dual firewalls, SPI and NAT
Other features included something about 300mbit wireless if you like that sort of thing, I'm not using it currently but all the right options are there WPA etc. Configuration was easy (on XP) the provided CD does the basics for you and it's up and working, I would recommend reviewing the settings afterward as it does not set admin passwords etc.
In summary a good buy, I'm maxing out my 20mbit connection with the firewall functions enabled. The build quality is excellent and there are more advanced functions than I'll every use.
