If you've got more than one computer in the house, sooner or later, you'll probably need a local network of your own. And if you've got a gamer in the house, they'll want all the high-speed bandwidth they can get. Time to get a router where even the wireless runs at 108Mbps.
With four wired ports capable of running at 10/100/1000 Mbps and optimized for the gaming fan's needs, this router can feed your greed for speed. Not into games? Well, it should still do fine for heavy bandwidth applications like distributed video, while allowing your laptops the freedom to roam wherever your lap goes. The reverse SMA antenna is also removable so you can change it if you need to.
Is this the wireless router for you? Only you can decide that, but remember: we'll be waiting right here when you've made up your mind.
Pros: Ok, I've used probably about 6-10 wireless routers in my life. Most were cr@p and returned rather quickly for one reason or another. My requirements are simple. Reliable, Fast, and Configurable. None met all 3 until I came across the previous D-Link gaming router, the DGL-4300 (Not this one).
I was in heaven. It was FAST, Reliable, and very configurable... I could do all my VPN, VNC, SSH, whatever I wanted. It was perfect...
Well, I got a new draft-N laptop... and it kept cutting out. Keep in mind that I live in an apartment complex with at least 20 WiFi points in range.
So I bit the bullet and bought this router in hope of the draft-N working it's magic.

Cons: MAC Filtering: Ok, when you deny everyone but who's in your list... make SURE you add the computer you're typing on FIRST. Or you'll filter your system out and you might have to reset the router to default and start over.
Other Thoughts: I'm connected at 130Mbps and just transferred a few hundred megs in seconds. This blows me away. No drops... remember, I have at least 20 other WiFi routers in range. I'm a HAPPY camper :)
The web interface is the same as the 4300.. with a few more options...
Bottom line... if you want a router that's SOLID, FAST, RELIABLE, and CONFIGURABLE.... Get this.

Disappointed. Need new firmware.

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: Very stylish. Looks good.
Cons: I upgraded from the DGL-4300. I was very happy with the DGL-4300...but there was the DGL-4500. It is "N" and a newer product and I expected better tehonology but I was very disappointed. It was easy to set up but it disrupted my Vonage IP service so it was almost impossible to use. I have a lot of Dlink equipment and also some Dlink media players. On the DGL-4300 I had no trouble connecting to the DSM 320 media player. On the DGL-4500 I had a lot of trouble connecting to the DSM 320 player. I found out that the only way to make a connection was to reboot the Media software so everytime I had to connect to the player I had to reboot the Media player. Quite frequently I would also lose my internet connection for about 30 seconds. Very annoying.
Other Thoughts: I am now back on the DGL-4300 and cannot use the DGL-4500. I sure hope that D-link soon will release a new firmware that addresses all the problems with this router

Pros: Much stronger signal to me 360 downstairs than my old linksys that died and I replaced it with. Have not had any issues thus far. I haven't messed with the internal settings much yet, but I haven't felt the need to because it is already performing at such a great quality for me. I can stream tv shows from my computer to my 360 without issues.
Cons: It takes a bit of time to get the antenna adjusted just right for optimal performance, but once you have it great.

Pros: I bought this router but I held off on the review because some people had problems with firmware upgrades and having to reset it alot. I'm happy to save I have not had any problems.
I have my PC, Xbo360, and PS3 all hooked up and i get full speeds on each unless of course I'm downloading multiple files on more than 1 system. 1 other thing I should mention I haven't used the wireless since I don't really need to at the moment.
Cons: none really

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Fast router, very easy to set up. Both the wireless and the wired are very quick and reliable.
Cons: This router died on my right after the warranty expired. The wired ports would no longer connect and the wireless would not pull an IP from the internet. Not sure what died, but something definitely is wrong. D-Link tech support was less than helpful. And could not provide me with ANY answers.
Other Thoughts: The screen on the front turns off after about a minute, leaving you with no clue what is happening on your network. No other indicator lights are on the router.
