Please post your feedback regarding this firmware here.

The same issues addressed in the DGL-4500 have been added and resolved with this code.

I am more interested in knowing if the wireless speeds have improved with this release

I hope you'll release this for Europe, too. I need the relay fixed.

Running fine the first 20 hours.
DNS-Relay enabled - Advanced DNS disabled

Wireless 5 GHz seems to be a little bit stronger but maybe it is just a feeling.

No issues up to now.

!st. your beta firmware does not tell me that it's beta, it just says ver 1.21NA again.instead of 1.21B07

Second it will not show any clients connected to the router in Status/wireless when they are connected.

And each time I flash the firmware it reverts to a new install, it should not overwrite any settings that I have put in period.  But considering this is D-Link and you've had this POS router out for over a year, I wouldn't expect you to understand anything

So Far I have not had to do any reboots of my router and everything seems stable. This is a good thing for me since I had to reboot a lot with the official 1.21 firmware.

I have been running the beta firmware for 9 days now! I have reversion A2 hardware and I have to say the new firmware is a HUGE improvement over 1.21!! I have never seen my router log 9 days before. I would normally see the router log get to four days then I would have to power cycle the router. Since running the beta firmware, NO power cycles what so ever  ;D!! I do not have ANY wan slowdown at all!! Normally after four days the wan would slow down, then stop and I would have to power cycle the router. Now that the major problems are fixed I do have to say that I do have some wireless reboots still though. I know that the router still needs some improvements, but the beta is a MAJOR improvent and step forward in the right direction! I would like to thank Dlink at this time for their efforts and hopfully get all the issues of the DIR-855 fixed over time!

I'm glad to see there's been an improvement with this router but some reporting that there are still wireless reboots periodically will prevent me from upgrading the firmware in my router.

Not one issue with the new b07NA.

DNS in standard settings with DNS relay turned on.
The WEB GUI seems to respond faster than before.

I do not know whether it  is possible to improve performance of 5 GHz wireless ... this is the only thing I would like to see. And perhaps that some firmware programmer enables LAN port in the static routing again  ;D
But this is another thing...

We dir-855 gave some feedback on the beta firmware, but a lot less than I had expected with all the compaints and problems the forums were discussing! What I would really like to know is if Dlink is working on polishing this beta firmware up some more to improve on the wireless disconnects, or will that be a new firmware altogether? I really thought that we would have heard more back from dlink on this beta firmware or even if they are going to make it final or rework it. Hopefully we will get some sort of response from anybody  ::) (Dlink or forum members) at this point on feedback or the status of beta firmware! Thanks.

Been doing some tests on games with 2 xboxes on the router, I seem to be getting some type of Jitter, or inconsistent bandwidth, anyone know what could cause this?

Running "Firmware Version : 1.21NA,  2009/11/05"

Is this BETA for US customers only?

Can it be used on a EU A2 revision Dir-855?

Has anyone from EU tried this on their device?

Has anyone from EU ever tried any US fw on their device?

Thanks,
