D-Link DGL4300 108Mbps GamerLounge Wireless-G Gaming Router with 4-Port Gigabit Switch

$79.99 plus shipping

Seems pretty warm to me because don't these normally go for over $100? All LAN ports are gigabit and has traffic shaping so downloads don't totally kill your ping. Also is black colored, and as we know a black computer part means it is automatically 2% faster. ;)

Now you've gone and done it. That was supposed to be a secret.

D-link routers i've used in the past have been good but this one is excellent. Best home router i've used in 10 years.

Great router. Only downside is the gig ports only support 4k jumbo frames. Not 9k like some other switches.

I just bought one of these from NewEgg for $110 and it's going back this weekend now.

However, I don't know if I'll be buying a new one. Can anyone here who has used this with an XBOX 360 attest to the performance? I've been in firmware hell this week because of this stupid router. I've tried 1.3, 1.7 and 1.9 and none of them work 100% correctly. I can't connect to my modem with 1.3 and 1.7/1.9 completely tank on XBOX Live with or without gamer fuel turned on.

Figured I should bring it up if there's any 360 owners on here. I'm at my wit's end with it.

I would try 1.6. That is the one I keep going back to.

What would you recommend instead that does support the 9k frames?

Good Deal on one of the best routers out there. If I hadn't picked up a D-Link DIR-655 router 2 weeks ago, I would have def jumped on this deal.

DGL-4300, the most rock stable, and fastest consumer grade router on the market. D-Link support is decent, the representitives are speak another tongue but they are outgoing. My DGL-4300 has been running for more than a year and never needs restarting.

Unconfigured and unoptimized, this router adds no detectable latency.

Price is back up to $99. Game over.


EDIT: Add to cart and price drops to 79.99 plus $9.99 shipping. Total = 89.99.
