D-Link WBR-1310 is fine.......2007-05-18

I don't understand all the people trashing this router. I got a Linksys and the software couldn't even find my NIC card. So I took that back and got this one. It is Revision D1 and firmware 4 and it is fine. I was horrified when I read these reviews but I have tested it over and over for the last week and no problems at all. I have tried playing online games on the XBOX 360 and not 1 problem or disconnect yet. It was easy to set up and works fine for me. No problems AT ALL so these reviews baffle me.

If I had read reviews of this product before buying it, I would've saved myself a good couple of hours. It starts with unsecured wireless enabled, with easy default user and password, so be careful to secure it quickly. Also, if you disable the wireless, you have to do a factory reset to get it connected again. The default timeout for DHCP is too low, and there is apparently some sort of problem with a computer trying to refresh its IP (doesn't work, and seems to cause the router to reboot). The router will mysterious reboot for no reason with only one computer connected running virtually no load.
The one redeeming factor of this router is that it can do whitelist MAC filtering which I wish the other vendors would do with their low end routers. Needless to say, this one was returned and RMA'd back to the manufacturer. I'm now trying out a Netgear.

Buggy garbage.......2007-04-05

What a terrible product. The setup "wizard" was completely broken, the clock kept resetting the date back to 2002 (despite correcting it multiple times), and it would only allow one wireless connection at a time -- when one computer connected, the other would get mysteriously disconnected. I wish I'd read the other reviews before buying ... this thing is going straight back to the store.

sucky little router with great potential.......2007-03-17

THis router has great potential if it would only stay on. It reboots constantly when there is any kind of traffic (VOIP, Streaming music, etc.)

My other Dlink did the same. No more Dlinks for me!

My version of the WBR-1310 came with firmware 2.0 installed (the most recent) and it still has the bug where it forgets your login info, causing you to have to reset the entire device back to factory settings.

At first I thought it was something I was doing, but apparently this model is just a piece of junk. Not being able to log into the router is unacceptable, especially if you plan on adjusting settings on any regular basis.

Do yourself a favor and spend a little extra on a Linksys model.
