This review is from: D-Link Amplifi Access Point/MediaBridge (DAP-1525) Wireless N300, SmartBeam Coverage, Dual-Band, Gigabit
Pros:
Sigh. Good idea? Like the design. Can act as a bridge or WAP. That's about it, barely worth two stars for that.
Cons:
Where do I begin? It's supposed to be a range extender, but at 10 ft from it I barely get a 'good' signal. That's no walls between, just me 10 feet away. Right now, it's about half as far from me as the main AP is, but I am connecting to the main AP! This morning (it does this regularly) it decides it does not want to WPS to the main AP and I have to go through the whole re-paring bit, complete with dragging it into the back bedroom and all the button pressing and sprinkling with pixie dust to get it to work again. I give up. I am in the market again for another AP.
Overall Review:
If Dlink had delivered what they wrote on the box they would have something. But it's too weak, too finicky, oh-and did I mention that the instructions are just about worthless? Sorry Dlink, nix the WPS and call it a basic AP for really small apartments and you would have something there...
