BEST-IN-CLASS FEATURES
The D-Link Xtreme N™ Gigabit Router (DIR-655) is a draft 802.11n compliant device that delivers up to 14x faster speeds* and 6x farther range* than 802.11g while staying backward compatible with 802.11g and 802.11b devices. Connect the Xtreme N Gigabit Router to a cable or DSL modem and provide high-speed Internet access to multiple computers, game consoles, and media players. Create a secure wireless network to share photos, files, music, videos, printers, and network storage.

The Works with Vista Logo ensures compatability for your networking devices
Powered by Xtreme N™ technology and equipped with three external antennas, this router provides superior wireless coverage for larger homes and offices, or for users running bandwidth-intensive applications. The DIR-655 also includes a 4-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit switch that connects Gigabit wired devices for enjoying lag-free network gaming and faster file transfers.

D-Link’s Intelligent QoS Technology - WHY INTELLIGENT QoS IS BETTER
With some routers, all wired and wireless traffic, including VoIP, Video Streaming, Online Gaming, and Web browsing are mixed together into a single data stream. By handling data this way, applications like video streaming could pause or delay. With D-Link’s Intelligent QoS Technology, wired and wireless traffic is analyzed and separated into multiple data streams. These streams are then categorized by sensitivity to delay, so applications like VoIP, Video Streaming, and Online Gaming are given priority over Web browsing. This enables multiple applications to stream smoothly to your TV or PC.

ADVANCED NETWORK SECURITY

The Xtreme N Gigabit Router supports the latest wireless security features to help prevent unauthorized access, be it from over a wireless network or from the Internet. Support for WEP™, WPA™, and WPA2™ standards ensure that you will be able to use the best possible encryption regardless of your client devices. In addition, this Xtreme N router utilizes Dual Active Firewalls (SPI and NAT) to prevent potential attacks from across the Internet.

Delivering best-in-class performance, network security, and coverage, the Xtreme N Gigabit Router (DIR-655) is the ideal centerpiece for your wireless network in the home or office.

WHAT THIS PRODUCT DOES
Create a wireless network to share high-speed Internet access with computers, game consoles, or media players from greater distances in your home or office.

XTREME N™ ROUTER BENEFITS

* Intelligent Wireless Prioritization Technology.
* Xtreme N technology allows for farther home coverage*.
* Secure your wireless network using advanced WEP™, WPA™, or WPA2™ encryption.
* Easy to get started with D-Link’s new Quick Router Setup Wizard.
* Supports Good Neighbor Policy – will not interfere with other wireless networks.
* Backward compatible with 802.11g and 802.11b devices including game consoles and digital media players.

* Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g and draft 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, buildings materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental factors will adversely affect wireless signal range. Wireless range and speed rates are D-Link RELATIVE performance measurements based on the wireless range and speed rates of a standard Wireless G product from D-Link. Maximum throughput based on D-Link draft 802.11n devices.

Comment: An indisputable advantage of the DIR-655 is that it has a Wi-Fi Alliance certification, which means it is an almost 100% compliant IEEE802.11n device.

If you're a little careful, this router is all you need. We regularly have two mobile phones, two PC's, and XBox, and an iPad hooked up to it and don't have any problems.

I tried various firmwares with it, and most of them make it unstable (e.g. must reboot every hour for one, another automatically reboots it every hour). I use 2.07NA. (Read More)

Nice and elegent look. White clean. Enough strong to broacast  trough the wall of a normal house. Stable wifi speed. Sharing settings is simple and verry effective. I always buy D-Link and every product is nicely build. Not dual band...But for that range price it's totaly normal.

It's a nice router but not very fast and looses connection, needing reboot. I recommend best of breed refurb Linksys or Apple Airport extreme. Get 5GHz if you can to avoid interference. (Read More)

My previous WRT54G was starting to fail on me, this was a perfect replacement for it. Loads of features and port forwarding options turned me onto this unit, as well as many of the advertised features. The only complaint I have is that the broadcast  signal range seemed about the same as my old router, I was hoping this would broadcast  significantly stronger but it's not a big issue. (Read More)

In order to have this router actually work, you have to do a firmware upgrade. Otherwise, the wireless radio turns off every 24 hours (or so).
