Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased the dlink di-514 to replace my dlink di-711, which I dropped while moving to a new house. I bought the di-514 from buy.com for $41.50 with free shipping and then there was a 20 mail in rebate. So I got the router for a total of 21.50, can't much beat that.

Don't keep time by the di-514 router

Pros Connects all my direct connect computers to the Internet 90 % of the time.
Cons Hit or miss Wi-Fi connection. Undependable internal clock.
Recommended it? No

Got my DI-514 at Best Buy on the day after Thanksgiving, 2003. I wanted it for my Wi-Fi PDA. When I hooked it up in the basement, all the direct connect computers worked fine. My Wi-Fi PDA was another story. At times it would have a great signal and at others times it would have none at all. This... Read full review »

Horrendous

Pros Used the antenna from this router on my new one
Cons Locks up, frequent disconnects, hideous UI, slow data transmission, high latency
Recommended it? No

This router is terrible. During my entire period of ownership, i thought that all wireless networking is difficult and unreliable. After replacing this with a Netgear, all of my problems disappeared immediately.

This router is nothing but trouble. It runs much too hot, and this causes it... Read full review »

It's a bargain, and it works like a bargain.

Pros Inexpensive, mac address filtering, high speed ethernet, fairly strong signal strength.
Cons Annoying disconnection issue about every hour, wireless connections are dropped...
Recommended it? Yes

Well, it's a bargain wireless and 10/100 ethernet (4 port) router. MAC address filtering and a powerful firewall (but the firewall requires some experience.) BUT, one significant issue: the wireless part seems to drop wifi connections every hour or so. Can't seem to fix the problem, and from other... Read full review »

bycurtisonline Dec 7, 2003
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Easy setup. Many advanced options.
Cons None at this time.
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this wireless access point, firewall, router and four port switch from BestBuy after they had a $50 dollar rebate. I also was looking for a small footprint firewall to replace a Linux IPTables system I was using. I must say I am very impressed by the functionality and ease of setup of... Read full review »

Must power off to really turn off wireless

bychdyoung Dec 30, 2003
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Small
Cons Wireless does not turn off, but goes unencrypted instead
Recommended it? No

Caution: you may unknowingly be providing open access to your network, but new firmware from Dlink fixes this trouble.

Supposedly you can turn off the wireless function and use only the 4 port router. When wireless should be disabled, it actually merely changes settings to; encryption... Read full review »

Pros $29 price tag, simple and dependable, small footprint (size of a paperback book).
Cons I have no cons - it does exactly what I expect for $29.
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased the Dlink DI-514 as an extra router for a second DSL account at home and I am very impressed. I have been a customer of D-Link for some time and also own their DI-624, and three wireless cards. The DI-514 confirms that I continue to like D-Link. I had the router set up and running in...

Bad Firmware updates

Pros Cheap
Cons Flaky, problematic connection, overheats
Recommended it? No

I bought this router, probably for the same reason other bought this router, because it was fairly cheap and looked to have good features. As a caveat, I should say that, if one is a beginning user this router would be a good one to use. However for the more advanced user, look elsewhere to save... Read full review »
