 Slow and awful January 29, 2008
This router works alright, and set up was pretty smooth. But that's where the good ends. I also own a 802.11g D-link router that has 1 antenna. This "Pre-N" router has worse coverage is 10x slower. Literally. I use to download from the same server at over 200k/sec, now it's about 20/k sec. It's slower than a 802.11b or anything I've ever seen. Maybe it has to do with configuration that needs to be done with older G wireless adapters, but I'm sickened by this purchase. This is suppose to have 2 super antennas, but coverage and speed stink more than ancient routers with 1 antenna.
router with plenty of challenges March 3, 2007
DI-624M is easy to install and provides good signal (at least within the range of my flat!). However, despite the fact that it is easy to install, it is a massive challenge to make it work efficiently afterward. It usually works okay for some time after installation and re-installation (which happens periodically), but after a while it tends to do its own thing (looks like this device has the mind of its own!). It connects to the internet, but prevents many programmes from accessing it altogether (with an exception of Skype, in my experience).br /br /Pros: br /1) easy to installbr /2) good signalbr /br /Cons:br /1) settings change without any prior action and/or your intentionbr /2) settings change without any prior action and/or your intentionbr /3) did I mention that settings change by themselves???br /br /If you are considering purchasing a router, it would, probably, make sense to try getting some other product. This may prevent you from pain of trying to work out how to make DI-624M function properly.
DO NOT BUY THIS ROUTER January 9, 2007

Bought this router to replace a DI-524 that had a broken antenna. Verified the firmware shipped with the unit was the latest, and was able to connect to the internet on the wired pc, but the wireless pc had poor/no connectivity. Tried a different channel, and that improved the signal strength, but still less then the DI-524. Tried to use email, (Outlook Express on Comcast), and received errors that indicated an MTU sizing problem. Tried, unsuccessfully, to change the MTU on the router, so made the mistake of calling DLINK support. After 2 hours on the phone, was informed that I needed to contact Comcast to find out why their modem won't talk to Dlink's router. Heck with it...I put a piece of wire on the DI-524 to replace the antenna, and returned the DI-624M.br /Don't buy this router!!!! UPDATE 1/20/2007 - Didn't return it, because the vendor won't RMA it...NO RESPONSE FROM VENDOR. I'm out the $45.00....
Ok, but performance is terrible October 29, 2006

I bought this to replace my Linksys BESFR41 cable/dsl router and Linksys WAP11 access point. Mistake! Everything worked fine out of the box, but my WAN performance went down 66%. With Linksys, I had Internet download speeds of 9742Kbps, but with this D-link Di-624M I get 3072Kbps. I can't get it to go any faster. I have switched back and forth between the two to no avail. What is the problem? Does anybody know? I'm wishing I wouldn't have bought it now. Wasted my money.
 Great, with new firmware. May 5, 2006

This is a great router in terms of speed and coverage. Once updated with the new firmware, the DI-624M has worked really well with "very good" signal, even through brick walls. br /While I was updating it, the firmware update page timed-out after about 30mins, though after refreshing the page, it was apparently finished.br /Unfortunately though, the router doesn't include Bigpond cable login client which is annoying since I have Bigpond. Also when I changed it's IP back to *.*.0.1 from *.*.1.1 (for ICS), the webconfig stopped working till I restarted it. Besides these two things, it's been great and I highly recommend it.br /br /Apparently it's better to update the firmware when the router's cool (turned off for a while and under a fan), and it is possible to fix bricked ones.
