D-Link DSR-250

Llego antes de la fecha programada, muy bien empaquetada. El router funciona excelente muy facil de configurar, apenas lo configure y la velocidad de internet se incremento considerablemente.

I bought this to replace a DIR-655 (together with a set of DAP-2553). I am happy to say almost everything is now working to my liking and the problems I was trying to solve are fixed (in particular, availability of the Guest network from multiple access points, as well as the WAN failover - although I haven't tested that yet). However, be warned that the documentation (including D-Link KB) mostly consists of restating the obvious (i.e. the UI) and is basically useless when it comes to more advanced topics, like setting up a VLAN and ensuring VLAN separation. D-Link technical support did answer a pre-sales question correctly... but since then has failed to answer two post-sales follow-up questions. The DHCP capabilities of this router are inferior to the DIR-655 - reservations are next to useless because you can't name the devices, and the status page doesn't display the lease time, in addition to being monstrously slow. Schedules don't seem to work in association with Firewall rules. The firmware isn't being updated regularly, so the chances of getting these problems fixed are probably small. Nevertheless if you need the capabilities - dual WLANs and proper VLAN support - it does the trick. UPDATE: I've now tested failover and it works, but there are some caveats. First, by default it will take two minutes to discover that a connection is down. Second, the backup line is then brought up from scratch - it's inactive until needed - and that seems to take rather longer than it should - another one or two minutes. And finally, existing connections may timeout and will need to be re-established - more minutes. It seems that some of these are poor design choices. UPDATE: I did get a response from D-Link about the schedule issue; it was indeed a bug, and they supplied me with a beta build that fixes the issue. It also appears to improve the fail-over behavior. That deserves an extra star! UPDATE: Well, maybe not... while fixing the schedule issue, this beta build introduces other problems, including issues with failover, as well as a large number of error messages in the log on boot. There goes the star again... UPDATE: Tech Support seemed convinced that the beta firmware was better than the released version, and so I upgraded again, this time configuring from scratch. This finally resulted in a configuration that fully replaces the DIR-655 and adds capabilities. So while it was painful to configure, and there are plenty of minor bugs along the way, I'll give it five stars with a sigh of relief. Based on my experience I would budget a week of time, and four hours of work and downtime, to configure it. UPDATE: I'm taking away two stars again. Occasionally the router will update the dynamic DNS server with the address for the *wrong* WAN interface, making it inaccessible. And also occasionally, if you have a printer plugged into the USB interface, it will disconnect the printer and make it inaccessible, just because the printer has gone to sleep. These are pathetic, inexcusable bugs that should be fixed. UPDATE: Many of these issues were fixed over time. However, on two occasions new problems started to appear after a firmware upgrade. The only help from Tech Support was to suggest doing a hard reset, followed by a complete reconfiguration. This takes hours. There goes another star.... (Note : Firmware 1.09 introduced a memory leak. 1.08 however works.) UPDATE: Over time, and given the right firmware, this became a reliable and versatile router.

This VPN router was just what I needed to replace my 8 port switch. I needed to get a new adapter as the one it came with was for the US (flat pins). While I have not configured any of the settings and just plugged in the wires, it was works just as intended.

Ce commentaire ne va pas vous permettre de juger la qualité du produit, mais plutôt de la version reconditionnée après plusieurs problèmes suite au firmware corrompus plusieurs appels et échanges par mail avec le Support de Link, il faut être avancé pour pouvoir régler ce problème. Outre ça une fois l’OS réparé dans les paramètres, le routeur avait été allumé pendant 7 ans ce qui pour un Routeur est déjà très bien. Soit c’est de la seconde main. Mais du à cette utilisation, plusieurs services essentiel et détection d’interface dans les ports n’était plus supporter ou dysfonctionnels engendrant ici une erreur hardware qui m’a découragé et m’a amené à renvoyer le produit.

Does what it's supposed to.
