I Can't really say a whole lot because this is the first wireless product I have worked with. I can tell you the setup was fairly easy, though there was a step missing that may mislead a newby like myself. (The instructions never said to disconnect the router from the computer's ethernet input...you just have to know to do it).
Another problem I had that was frustrating was having to reconnect my wireless signal about every two days on my workstation while my laptop connection was fine. Then, I totally lost a secured network (on both computers) and had to temporarily work unsecured until I had time to call support and get help.
Support guy was very helpful, but also rather condesending.
It is 3 days since calling support and the wireless connection is still working fine.
I purchased a D-Link product because of their quality reputation. I think it is a good product. There maybe products with software better suited for network begginers like me.
Works well, but has problems

This DIR-615 router works well in general, but make sure you are not using VOIP (SIP) communications through it as it can then cause all kinds of issues.
I had to downgrade the firmware from 3.11 to 3.01 in order to get SIP communications working from behind this router, now seems to work well, but I worry what other enhancements I might be missing out on and can never upgrade unless they correct this issue.
I just wanted to make sure everyone is aware of this limitation.

This router is the second of D-Link routers I have used. The first one finally died. I find that D-Link is a great choice. The DIR-615 router I use now to connect our wireless equipment together is a fantastic unit for the dollars spent. Initially, I had minimal problems, but the D-Link support staff were very helpful, and the problems were fixed. If and when this opne dies, I will not hesitate to purchase another D-Link router because of D-Link's solid reputation of reliability and value for the hard earned dollars we procure.
Works like a charm

Replaced my Linksys, which was losing connectivity quite often. This router is working like a charm, and was fairly easy to setup. (Having said that, I do work in IT)
Great!
