Rated 5 out of 5 Works as advertised
Context: Home personal / office setup; AT&T DSL; 3 Macs. I spent a disastrous month trying and failing to get a LinkSys BEFSR41 to work reliably with my rock-solid Speedstream 4100 DSL modem, getting only about 20% uptime over 4 frustrating weeks. I decided to eliminate all possible modem / router issues and try an all-in-one unit. The D-Link DSL-2540B worked perfectly out of the box using the same setup parameters I'd used before. To be fair, the admin features basically mirror the LinkSys unit's, so I was already familiar with procedures and issues. More explanatory documentation would make this unit even more easily usable. I'd suggest adding small legs underneath to help with ventilation. This unit works well, works from the get-go, and keeps on working! Kudos to D-Link for a solid plug-n'-play unit!

First D-link product I ever bought. Usually buy Linksys network stuff. Upgraded my DSL to 10 Mbps and my old modem couldn't handle it. After some Googleing I decided to try the D-Link. Installation was quick and easy. It was up and running quickly and it works very well. I'm able to run at full speed - usually a little over 10 Mbps and I stay connected for long periods of time (days / weeks). I think they can improve the interface by 1) having individual help screens for each page and, 2) Providing a screen that gives you the amount of time you've been connected since the last reconnect. In addition to working well the unit looks nice - black and silver with green LED's! Also, I have a 2nd router hooked to it and all works fine.
