The controls via the remote for the Player were a little obtuse and the quick instruction manual left something to be desired, BUT, after that it works like a charm under Vista no less. The server ware is no Itunes but it does the job. I'd like some more flexibility in the file management area. Basically another great DLink product.

Although finding the Multimedia servers within your own ip address is a bit hap hazzard I found the unit to stream media perfect wirelessly. It did not matter if I paired it with a NAS2 by Dlink (has its own NAS server built in with ftp etc) or my Linksys wrt54g or my Linksys N. Performance was NOT an issue. Getting the Dlink Media server through your computers firewall and your routers firewall is a bit of a challenge once done it is great. 24 hour almost commercial free internet radio on my 47'' HD TV surround sound is great. The deault media server must be on a computer with the minumum requirements,take heed.

This media players works great once you iron out all the software problems. I had to remove my codec pack and install the tversity server software, with its own codec pack, and fddshow, and upgrade the firmware, once you do this the player works perfect, no dropped frames, no lag or sync problem. Tversity's ability to transcode on the fly is excellent, I have very few videos that I cannot play. I have not tested its wireless features as it only uses WEP encryption which is the dsm320s biggest fault. Ethernet is faster anyway.

Not a bad product for the money, but I would not recommend it if you want to stream video wirelessly. I purchased this to stream media from my bedroom PC to my living room entertainment center. The wireless feature works fine for audio, but does not carry enough bandwidth to stream video. The ethernet networking works fine for video, so I ended up running a Cat5 cable to use the video feature. I replaced the factory software with TVersity and was able to stream some video and Internet radio stations from the web.

Crappy Product.
To make it worse, D-Link tech support and customer service is extremely poor! You'll need to pay for shipping a DEFECTIVE piece back to D-Link even if the product was FAULTY in the first place.
