I needed a simple, easy to use router with good range-I found it!

Pros Easy to set up, good range, future technology!
Cons No MAC support in the box!! No ICHAT with encryption!
Recommended it? No

Well, my headline spells it out. Being a MAC user, I already felt somewhat left out in the cold! The choices for MAC routers is not that great! I did some investigating and found that this Belkin Pre-N router is both MAC & PC compatible! Well, that wasn't quite true either, but more about that in a... Read full review »

I have been using DI-624 and works great so far except its somewhat limited wireless range. I have been reading many good reviews and feedbacks posted by consumers and experts on Belkin Pre-N router and Pre-N PCMCIA card on internet. So I finally purchased it from CompUSA yesterday. After the... Read full review »

The Power-User's Router

5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Gigabit, Stable, flexible control panel, price
Cons No DDWRT support, Shareport still buggy
Recommended it? Yes

Back in the days it seemed like D-Link made inferior products; in the time where the WRT54 was the king of the castle, D-Link was cheaper made, had a less extensive list of options available from the web interface, and generally was less appealing. Times have changed, thanks to products like the... Read full review »
