Rating: - Slow and awful
This router works alright, and set up was pretty smooth. But that's where the good ends. I also own a 802.11g D-link router that has 1 antenna. This "Pre-N" router has worse coverage is 10x slower. Literally. I use to download from the same server at over 200k/sec, now it's about 20/k sec. It's slower than a 802.11b or anything I've ever seen. Maybe it has to do with configuration that needs to be done with older G wireless adapters, but I'm sickened by this purchase. This is suppose to have ... Read More
Rating: - router with plenty of challenges
DI-624M is easy to install and provides good signal (at least within the range of my flat!). However, despite the fact that it is easy to install, it is a massive challenge to make it work efficiently afterward. It usually works okay for some time after installation and re-installation (which happens periodically), but after a while it tends to do its own thing (looks like this device has the mind of its own!). It connects to the internet, but prevents many programmes from accessing it altogether (with ... Read More
Rating: - DO NOT BUY THIS ROUTER
Bought this router to replace a DI-524 that had a broken antenna. Verified the firmware shipped with the unit was the latest, and was able to connect to the internet on the wired pc, but the wireless pc had poor/no connectivity. Tried a different channel, and that improved the signal strength, but still less then the DI-524. Tried to use email, (Outlook Express on Comcast), and received errors that indicated an MTU sizing problem. Tried, unsuccessfully, to change the MTU on the router, so made the mistake ... Read More
Rating: - Ok, but performance is terrible
I bought this to replace my Linksys BESFR41 cable/dsl router and Linksys WAP11 access point. Mistake! Everything worked fine out of the box, but my WAN performance went down 66%. With Linksys, I had Internet download speeds of 9742Kbps, but with this D-link Di-624M I get 3072Kbps. I can't get it to go any faster. I have switched back and forth between the two to no avail. What is the problem? Does anybody know? I'm wishing I wouldn't have bought it now. Wasted my money.
Rating: - Great, with new firmware.
This is a great router in terms of speed and coverage. Once updated with the new firmware, the DI-624M has worked really well with "very good" signal, even through brick walls.
While I was updating it, the firmware update page timed-out after about 30mins, though after refreshing the page, it was apparently finished.
Unfortunately though, the router doesn't include Bigpond cable login client which is annoying since I have Bigpond. Also when I changed it's IP back to *.*.0.1 from *.*.1.1 (for ICS), ... Read More
