Router: D-Link vs Linksys

Keggsy · 07-05-2008, 17:13

I was in need of a new router, and I was wondering which people thought was the best one to buy - the Linksys Wireless-N Home Broadband Router WRT150N or the D-Link DIR-615 RangeBooster N 650. My current router is a D-Link DI-514 and it needs to be rebooted a lot, and I was told that the Linksys is a better buy. However the D-Link is giving a 10 year warranty on all the Wireless-N series, while the Linksys is a generic 1 year warranty.

What do people think?

Thanks for your time

hi,
I would go for the d-link all day long over the linksys but i wouldn't buy the dir-615 better to but the dir-635 or even better and more future proof is the dir-655

SO what's the main difference between the DIR-615 and the DIR-635? Is the extended range?

Yes you get much much better range also you get better upstream and downstream i've had the dir-635 and now have the dir-655 and they have both been excellent routers never dropped out the only reason i went upto the 655 was the 4 x 100/1000 ports on the back compared to the standard 10/100 ports but thats only as i have computers hardwired to it as well
