D-Link EBR-2310 Ethernet Broadband Router 1 x 10/100Mbps WAN Ports 4 x 10/100Mbps LAN Ports

Pros: Works well enough ... but

Cons: Date only goes to 2012
Revision C doesn't have new firmware to enable years past 2012. Incorrect/mismatching dates in networking equipment can cause connection issues.

Pros: I have owned this unit since Feb. 2009. I have had absolutely no problems with it since I bought it. It has been so long since I installed it that I can't remember how I did it. It was easy, though. I have had to power it off one time to get it going again when the power flashed and got the electrons confused. I wish everything I have owned was so dependable and durable. This is a legitimate and unbiased review, I promise you.

Cons: None in nearly four years.

Other Thoughts: I will say that when I bought my unit the cost was less than the cost it is now.....blame that on our politicians who love inflation and hate deflation, not Newegg.

Pros: H/W ver C1, F/W ver 3.00 allows DHCP reservations and works perfectly.

Cons: H/W ver B1, F/W ver 2.01 does not allow DHCP reservations

Other Thoughts: No way to upgrade h/w version A or B to the ver 3.00 firmware. I assume all the bad reviews are for the A&B hardware versions, since we've been using a h/w ver C at my business for a highspeed instrument network with ZERO problems. We bought two more and ended up getting version B that was pretty much useless (returned them). The only way to tell the difference is to call and have the operator check on the box and mail you that exact one!

Pros: Easy set up and programmable. Very stable even after 2 years of continual operation.

Cons: If multiple devices want access to the internet, for example, the router stops ALL of them to think about it. It comes back on after 30 seconds to a minute and processes the requests. But there is a notable lag time during high traffic periods from multiple devices. Tried all kinds of settings, but nothing does really alleviate this problem completely.

Other Thoughts: Might be great for a single user network who switches devices on occasion. Not recommended for multiple simultaneous users with heavy traffic. Definitely NOT recommended for business use.

Pros: I have installed about 30-40 of these over the past few years and have not had any fail yet. No disconnecting problems and rarely require a power cycle.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: I just need a router to be reliable and do not need a lot of special features. This gets the job done without any problems.

Pros: Easy Setup and cheaply priced

Cons: Drops connection frequently and when it is connected she's slow.

Other Thoughts: I picked up this router to replace an old Linksys router i have had for 5 + yrs.After weeks of frustration I tossed out the Dlink and went back to old faithful.

Pros: Worked great with my DSL provider right out of the box for my dad. His computer and DNR License machine have been hooked to it for years now with no issues.

Cons: None.

Pros: Simple setup.

Cons: As others have mentioned, it CONSTANTLY drops connection under load, and takes 45-90 seconds to get moving again. I bought this unquestioningly to replace a DI-604 that had performed flawlessly for several years, and was hugely disappointed. I cross my fingers every time i open a new tab in Firefox, hoping it isn't the straw that will break this quadriplegic camel's back...

No support from D-Link on the issue, and no attempts to update firmware since 2007; this suggests it's a hardware issue.

Other Thoughts: Had been a die-hard D-Link fan for 10+ years, but this product has convinced me to try Linksys for my next router.

Pros: It did not catch fire, but your mileage may vary.

Cons: Makes a good paperweight, doorstop or replacement lid for your cookie jar.

Other Thoughts: I used an old Belkin router for over 5 years before it stopped working, and it outperformed the D-Link EBR 2310. This router is junk. If all you do is check your email, it will be fine. If you do anything else, such as actually surf the internet, attempt online gaming, or multitasking of any sort, this router will infuriate you.

Even common web-browsing is slow and laborious. This router will spontaneously hiccup, and block web traffic for around 5 to 10 minutes randomly. Forget using any kind of peer to peer software, as it will entirely prevent all web surfing. If you believes this is a sufficient router for heavy internet, usage then clearly you have never actually used it before. I used this router in, in denial, for over 3 years. Do yourself a favor, don't buy this router. Every internet problem you have can be attributed to this router.

Pros: It's made of molecules.

Cons: Web is completely unusable while running torrents. Anything more than two computers on it and normal websurfing becomes improbable.

Other Thoughts: We used this router for over a year, and couldn't be happier about getting rid of it. It is entirely impossible to browse the web while running torrents, and computers are constantly battling for open ports. Services like internet radio, VPN, etc, are constantly dropping out, and anything that swarms will bring it to its knees. It's just a slow, inferior piece of junk. This router might be fine for granny to check her email, but power users should definitely avoid it like the plague.
