The editors didn't like
No WPS support on the client (yet)
Minor setup glitches. Article appeared originally on WiFi Planet.com.
USB device sharing is one Windows client at a time
Low functionality of the USB port
Impractical surface material
Poor thermal contact of the heatsinks with the components they cool

Slightly expensive
Setup problems when internet is not available
Not the prettiest router we've ever seen. TCP output with WEP slower than expected.
Costs more than your standard commodity router (but it’s worth it!)
Marketing claims of 6X and 14X are slightly deceptive
The USB port is completely useless
Only one computer can access a shared drive or pri
While its drive and printer sharing features have serious limitations, the D-Link DIR-655 would be one of our top picks even without them, thanks to its low price, great performance, easy setup, and handy guest access mode. Becky Waring Lowest online ...
Unfortunately, things went downhill from that point onwards. In order to set up a password to protect your new wireless network you have to configure the router through its built-in webpage. However, that webpage didn’t work properly with the Safari...
Our love affair with the DIR-655 in its many model variations continues with this latest release. Its not the first router to offer 802.11n Draft 2 compliance, but it does add a wealth of new features to the package to set it apart from the competitio...
Abstract: D-Link's RangeBooster N 650 is a Draft-N router with an integrated Gigabit switch rather than the 10/100 switches built into most. It's compact and feels well made. The setup wizard clearly explains how to connect the router physically, and lets you set ...
Great file transfer speeds, Very good signal throw, Simple UI
Expensive

richesse du paramétrage, utilisation possible en VoIP et en multimédia, indications en français, régularité du signal, compatible WPS, création de serveurs virtuels, routeur gigabit.
faible puissance du signal, débit peu élevé, latence, installation peu conviviale.
le routeur DIR-655 nest pas le routeur offrant le débit le plus élevé ou le meilleur signal malgré sa conformité avec le standard 802.11n. Pourtant, il compense en régularité et en richesse de paramétrage. Il sadresse donc plutôt aux PME qui désirent...

Annoncée, puis reportée, puis réannoncée, puis lancée par Intel, comme pour débloquer la situation, voici la nouvelle norme Wi-Fi 802.11n enfin intégrée dans un routeur. Pas de miracle toutefois, cest bien sa version préliminaire ou pré-n qui équipe l...
