Re: DSL Connectivity and D-Link 655

I just bought a D-link DIR-655 and I am happy with it so far. I got this after trying a Zyxel X550N and a Netgear WNR3500. The Zyxel had poor performance on the WAN side (50% throughput penalty for some reason), and the Netgear had some issues when it came to wireless stability and the router losing all my port forwarding every other day or so.

The DIR-655 is a solid piece of equipment. You will be happy with it.

Ironically, I just returned mine and got a Belkin N+.

There are some problems with the DIR-655, particularly with the later firmware versions, and you may want to stay away if you use Vonage for phone service.

As a "basic" wireless router, it's fine, but I wouldn't recommend it for anything more.
