i have the DI-824VUP. i traded my old belkin because this one can basically be invisible to a network. i have had a few problems with it. the other day it would be on, but the wireless wasnt working at all, and since it wasnt working I couldn't log onto the router to try and fix it. after a few hours it fixed itself.

the rules at my school dont allow me to have any type of router, and they check the ports hardcore. i've been caught with my old belkin once, and if i get caught again i get fined and my port gets shut off. this router clones my mac address and my ip address. i can also set it up so that anyone that is using it has the same ip as my computer, so they can't see multiple pc's...so it works for me. when it dies i'll look elsewhere than d-link.

Yep the administration panel is great, I've seen it enough trying to get the darn thing to work.

i had the di-624 as well i belive.... it did the reboot shit, wireless was crappy... only thing i liked was the administration.

Yep DLink is crap

my DI-624 will randomly reboot all the time, I've updated to the latest firmware and nothing will stop it from doing it.

I've emailed their support and explain everything I've already done, and the response I got back was a canned response from a flowchart. His response was
'update to the latest firmware, thank you for contacting DLink support'

So I write back again, "As I explained in the first email, I've already done this!!'

so I get a response back, and I'm not kidding
"go to a previous firmware version'

So I end up going back like 5 firmware versions (all the way back to one that doesn't support WAP-PSK). Still reboots.

Emails go back and forth and they never did help me with it. (Out of warranty now)

I then go online, and find out that this is a common problem with these things, and DLink has done nothing to solve the problem.

v3 is version three.. there are 5 versions to this type of router, for more info go to http://www.linksysinfo.org/modules.php? ... page&pid=6

Hmm bestbuy you say? I will look into that, untill then i'll hold off on buying anything :)

im not sure what the v3 is.. but thats the router i got, it'll do you right!

i'd suggest you head to best buy to buy it though... thats $50 plus shipping if you use buy it now, at that route your paying more then you should!

Linksys WRT54G V3

any of you had expierence with this router?

Gonna buy it once i read up on it and get some feedback.. don't want another "problem" to occur

my first 2 wireless routers were d-links, complete shit imo. i liked them, especially the way they looked and all... and some of their options, but both crapped out on me and gave me nothing but headaches. I've had no problems since i've been running my linksys wireless router.

yea i agree and i do the same with my router unplug it plug it back in all is good!

Thats what i thought, but when i seen the offer in office max for a total rebate of 44 dollars leving the price on the router at 10.00 i couldnt' resist giving it a try.

Any company that has that many calls to their tech support, is obviously pretty sh#ty!



and yup i have tried resetting the thing, and doing all their updates, all the stupid procedures they had me trying, all to find out the unit is faulty.

Thanks for the input :)
