The worst modem you could ever purchase – Purchased this product and told by salesperson that the range would be better than the modem Dodo provided. It is not. The so called crappy Dodo… Read more

modem gave me signal in the back yard with this one it's gone. Thie range for this item is around 5 metres. The modem was placed in the exact same spot. I would NOT recommend this product to anyone. Update. It's worse than I thought had to reconnect old modem to get a reliable connection to all devices. Feel free to message me for more info. Do NOT waste your money on this product. Another update. Even with a booster it does not work properly. Its best function is being put in the bin. Total rubbish.

It works, but – Drops out and have to reboot to get it to work. Next time I purchase something like this, I'll check out firmware updates. Still being sold today,… Read more

nothing since 2018. UI on the router website is terrible, can't send logs anywhere or do anything reasonable with it. WiFi coverage is really bad as well, my Bluetooth headphones have more range. I had a Netgear router before this that died due to lighting...I miss that router.

surprisingly powerful – got this VDSL2+ router/modem because I've been told that my previous Netgear modem no longer works with the changes to FTTN. Surprisingly this is… Read more

much more power than I imagined. - I can boost the power so I don't even need the extender - Router logs can be sent to my log server - Router had issues with connecting back to the internet. occurs once a week. But the firmware flash fixed it for me - this supports my Synology NAS really well.

con. every now and then there must be some issue with the NBN network. I need to unplug the D-Link router in order for it to reconnect. don't think that is the modems fault.

intermittently so I factory reset them and updated firmware but now they keep losing connections after a couple of days and have to be factory reset each time. No longer a usable product!

Great wifi in non-ideal conditions – We had patchy wifi in our townhouse with the standard iiNet modem/router on NBN. I installed the D-Link and had great wifi. The speed was between… Read more

100-107 MBs when installed from our iiNET 100 plan. I found installation easy and was able to follow the app/instructions. This occurred even though the DLINK was installed in a small laundry insulated with a cupboard on one side and a toilet on the other. After a little tuning of those antennae, the DLINK provided pretty even service at 100+ MBs through the house and garden regardless of which doors where opened/closed. We have 4 people using the system, two are kids with heavy usage (videos etc.) and one person works from home. I haven't tried true parental controls, however each device can be assigned to a user and the device or user can have their service turned off (or restricted to scheduled hours). This works great to impact only one person, or one person and shared family devices.

Works but with quirks – A dual band modem from dlink. Mediocre 5ghz performance not at par with other dual band modems at this price point. A bit difficult to setup. Since no antennas.No chance to improve wifi coverage.  Show details

our original D-link router but they interfere with the main router causing bigger problems. I contact Chris from D-link who recommended this product. Due to having a sonos system i still needed the 2.4ghz network so you can turn off smart wi fi and split the networks to 2.4ghz and 5ghz. I bought 3 of these devices which act as one device wherever you are in the house. You can purchase as a 3 pack and due to having wired ethernet around the house i place the 2 add ons at these points giving either wired access or super fast 5ghz throughout. The devices advise installing the AquilaproAI app which is super easy to use and you tell it if the add ons are purely wi fi or connected with ethernet cable. I renamed the new main router the same as my old network and all devices automatically connected and the add on units sync to the main unit. I now have the full 500MBPS connection to the internet which my provider gives media wi fi or wired connection. Excellent product and could probably have managed with 2 devices in a 300m2 house . They are very pleasing on the eye also. Great value and great product

3 years is all you can get it out – Only good enough for 3 years of usage. After that it simply continues to drop out for no reason. Do not recommend if you can afford a better modem. Show details

connection) WHile the 5g has good connection speed (around 20-40 Mbps), the signal quality is very bad. My phone keeps disconnecting from the 5G wifi due to the poor quality.

Whenever I change the default setup the whole internet is gone, and i had to hard-reset the modem.

Several hundred dollars for a business-grade router. Performance was not great, and whole web UI would hang/crash when viewing the reporting page,… Read more

due to huge chunks of data being processed for graphs broken down by domain name. Eventually it got a firmware update that seems to improve things and resolve the reports issue.

Main problem is no IPv6 support, so it's basically useless for the future of the Internet. I don't know how they have the gall to ask that much ($600 at time of writing) for an outdated machine. Hopefully it gets another firmware update to address that.

Abysimal product experience – Simply didn’t work despite expert assistance from geeks and IT specialists. No link to home internet or extension of current wifi. I won’t be buying D-Link products after this experience wasted my and others time and energy
