D-Link DI624

It's possible I asked questions about this router before but I lost whatever username I was using, so I'll post up this quick summary of a crap router;

It worked flawlessly with one computer physically connected and 2 wireless connections for around 5 months, then as I changed my flatmates and we all started plugging in it started cutting out. The router would lose the internet an I'd have to re-boot the router. This could happen 5 times a day or 5 times a week, with no pattern with useage. I put it down to the cheap isp I was using, but then my mate leant me his netgear router and all the problems ended. I returned the router in December. My parents who used the same router also had the problem, as did another mate I recommended it to after it had been so stable for months.

It's obviously a flawed design. So, don't buy it! If you have it and experience dropping out often then it is probably not a setup issue, it's just crap

awesome, night night

You can't base your opinion of a crap product on one review. I had the 624 for atleast a year, and never had any problems with it. One wired connection and 2 wireless. And by the way, I believe that router is rated for 4 connections. (I cant tell atm, not using it.) If you had more than that, its obvious that the internet would crap out. -.-

I said in that review that problems started with more than 1 physical connection, which you say you don't have. Mine and my parents ones were fine with one computer plugged in. As soon as I had more than plugged in at my flat it started dropping out. Same with my parents, same with my mate. Shop agreed that many people have returned for similar reasons. It's not an opinion.

The DI series are absolute crap. I thought that was a well-known fact. My partner worked D-link tech support for quite a while.. She can tell you all about them.
