Hot!!!! D-Link AirPlus DI-614+ Enhanced 2.4GHz Wireless Cable/DSL Router at OD Free AR

[MuffD]

What cards are you all using with this? I have an Orinoco gold but was wondering if it would take full advantage of the router's transfer speeds.

 

[duuuma]

anyone who ordered online confirm an actual shipment? Mine says it'll be shipped in 3 days (3/20) also, but who knows what's gonna happen...

I'm pretty sure that this is a problem on my end, but I flashed the router to the newest firmware from D-link's site right after plugging it in (2.18). Now when I use my laptop with my Dell Truemobile 1150 (Orinoco Gold) card, I get dropped network connection for about 3 seconds and it's 10-15 minutes apart..... Anyone have any connection drops with this kinda setup? I flashed the Dell pcmcia with the 8.72 firmware also. This was an excellent deal BTW, Thanks to ericon and all! -TAL

I have the same card and am waiting for my 614+ to be delivered tomrrow. The router has a faster 22mbps wireless mode that is not available with the Orinoco. So you will max out at 11mbps with the OGold card. You will need to buy an "enhanced 802.11b" wireless card that supports the 22mbps speed if you want to "take full advantage" etc...

I had a feeling that was gonna happen so oh well. If i need to really transfer something huge, I can always plug it into the router directly. Now I need to figure out how to set up the remote desktop connection again. Can't seem to get on even though I already enabled this pc as the dmz hostl

well i dunno but mine changed from shipped in 3 days to

[saber800]

The status of 2 of my orders for the router has changed from "Pending" to "Waiting to Fill". I hope this is a good sign that I'll get them. Says I'll receive them on 3/20. Has anyone got theirs as yet (delivered not instore pickup)?

Do you also have to go with a D-link enhanced modem to complete the package and enable the 22mbps ... or just the equipment downstream from the router?

I don't think you need to have the modem.

I have the rebate pics on my harddrive. What is your email? Better yet, anyone willing to host the pics? My order says "Sent to Warehouse" as well. Hope it ships.

 

[starwarsdad]

I picked one up at a local B&M, $21.85 before rebate. I had one in my cart that shows shipped from New Orleans for $21.85. If it comes in, I have an extra. From NO, it ought to be here today or tomorrow if it is really coming.

I'm just tickled that I got in on this deal. Now I can get rid of my Belkin router

 

[saber800]

My 2 orders now say "On the truck" and the Delivery date has been moved up one day to TODAY!! Price still says $21.40. Some extra info:

Ordered: 3/16 around 11:30AM
Location: Raleigh, NC
Shipped from 1122: Charlotte CSC (Customer Service Center?)

Same problem here, with the same card (but Mini-PCI) and same router firmware. I never had this connection dropping problem with my DI-713P, so I'm going to try another wireless card and contact D-Link. Maybe a new firmware will fix it...

 

[Manolo]

I think this deal is dead allready online, you might want to try your luck B&M .

 

[Rat007]

my 3-20 delivery date is now a "on the truck status"
for both of mine time to cross fingers and toes

 

[cameronj]

The 614+ router and the 520+ PCI card both fall under the rebate - any idea whether you can get both rebates or just one?

 

[Manolo]

can someone post their order number so we can primacth with the cumstomer representative. I just call them and they told me if I have a order number from a friend, she could match the deal. Can someone post the order number and got the deal that would be awesome.

DELIVERED!! Both of my orders too (3/19 @ 10:15 AM). With a final price of $21.40 each (before MIR). OD didn't change the price of my orders like what they did to some people. So thats 3 wireless routers total for me. I should of ordered more but oh well. Time to put them on eBay.

The deal isn't dead as yet. You can still get in on the deal at the B&M stores.
