Quality
Great signal around the house but it took me a bit of fiddling with the settings.
No worries about set-up just log in to the router and have a play with the settings.

For £28 i am happy with this product, you can spend loads of money but what are your needs?
I've always stuck with the isp routers particularly the bt smart hub which has always been very good.

And because of fast gigabit ethernet port i'm barely losing any speed.
Packaging/appearance
So if you have having trouble with internet connect, try changing the supplied cat cable, faulty out of the box.
If you do that, the timothy won't connect to the internet, plug the tivo cat cable into the d-link.
After checking and rechecking, the last thing i tried was the supplied cat cable from the d-link to virgin media hub.
Competitiveness
Interface was clean and simple, and there was a dlink app available to download which will help you with the initial setup.
Uses dynamic frequency selection if you switch it on, which will give you a totally clear 5ghz channel.
Now i'm directly connected to virgin hub 3 router by cat6 cable and i have my own wi-fi network in my room.
I bought this as i needed 5ghz wifi.

Before upgrading if i was more than 3 metres away from the skyhub the cast would become unwatchable.

With this router i can cast and watch with no noticeable missed frames and with very minimal latency issues within the entire wifi range.

I'm on day two so if i find anything negative to report, i'll be back to angrily change this review and smite d-link to hell, for now i am a very happy customer and i think for most that want an affordable way to improve on their internet service providers shoddy wifi routers this is seemingly a good start.

I would say i live in a medium-sized property and the wi-fi signal at the far end rooms are quite weak but in the attic the 5ghz signal is very strong.

I was losing more than 70% of the speed, because my older laptop has just 100mbit ethernet port and connection was very unstable, i could use just slow wifi.

Fortunately this router solved my issue.
