I have the D-Link DIR-625. It installed easily and has worked without a hitch. It also connects to -G better than my old Linksys G router and I get better coverage all over the house.

I went to SmallNetBuilder and found this great test on router throughput to make sure I got the router with the best througput capabilities for its buck. I did that mostly to get maximum performance out of my 100MBit internet connection at home (Sweden rocks). I ended up getting the D-Link DIR-655 being the best value one of the bunch. It is great!

I second the D-Link DIR-655. Great value, super fast and very easy to setup. Oh, and the range is awesome (has 3 antennas).

I am having troubles connecting my Nokia E65 mobile phone to the DIR-655 through WiFi. Does anyone have info on that? The phone does support WPA2 and I ahve that option activated in the router. Still no connection…

seems that I cannot let the DIR-655 transmit wireless-N signals. That confuses the phone. The router needs to be in wireless b/g mode to work with the phone…
