Router has been working much better since first running the update... only thing I have noticed is over time my  wan download speeds will decrease... at its worse I was getting 1.5 down and 11 up...... plugged directly into the modem got my standard 48 down and 11 up. Need a reset at that point.

But I do feel progress is being made, please tell me another beta is in the pipeline soon

[Ru-Fi-Oh]

yes there are some details we need to hammer out and we are definitely getting closer to a fix. Thanks to all that have been cooperating and providing your feedback whether it be good or bad.

BTW Craiji ,

What hardware version is your router?

[Lycannot]

This is just utterly ridiculous.

How much testing was put into releasing the entire family of firmware? I mean this is not just affecting the DGL4500 but the 825 and the 855. From what I have experienced, not all the issues are fixed on the 4500 even with this band aid fix that you have offered up so late into the game. I am still getting wireless disconnects at an alarming rate.

How can you guys mess this up so badly, you owe us some explanation to us as paying customers.

The best thing people can do is leave negetive feedback  telling people to stay away from this unprofessional mess, on websites that offer this router, ex newegg etc.

Cannot agree with you more.  Post problem after problem and here's there response: "What hardware version are you using?"   I'm using the hardware that cost 180$ and should work.  Yeah... that one.  This is so F A I L.

I have the A1 version and am pretty much fed up at this point and will get the Netgear / file with BBB.

Filing with the BBB as well.

I am completely blown away about how there is no way to flash back to a stable firmware build and yet DLink could flipantly release this with clearly no real conclusive testing.

If DLink argue that they did and had no problems, well then it says alot about their testing and also their test environment. This then leads to the quality assurance and lack there of as well as respect for their customers, which I know is being poorly demonstrated at the moment.

I have to do something other than just not buy from this company again.  These guys are crooks and I hope they're applying to Netgear/Linksys within a year or two.  Not letting anyone I know buy from them.  People will listen too, considering I'm the only tech-savvy person in my circle of friends and family.  Go out of business, thanks.

My DGL has been working great using the latest FW. No Downtime since.  Makes me wonder if there is operator error involved at the end user level.  There are a ton of you (noobs) who probably don’t know what there doing or tweaking there equipment way to much. I really don’t think D-Link is out to make a bad name for themselves. Were not all perfect people. Get over it. I also notice that d-link offering free help to those who have make it here on the forums so why don't you people give them a chance and let them help you fix your issues. They've helped me and my buddy in Oklahoma with his 4500. Were happy now.

OMG I have NEVER seen a more ridiculous bunch of whiny crybabies in my entire life. they know their firmware is broken. Do you honestly think dlink has made it 20+ years in the industry by intentionally releasing broken product to rip you off? I don't think so. You guys are so ego-centric that you think someone at dlink is plotting this against you?

grow up. grow a brain and get over yourselves. If your product doesn't work, call their customer support and complain until they give you a refund. then go buy a linksys, netgear or any of the other, but this time be prepared to PAY to call their support when that **** doesn't work either.

you guys are ridiculous.

[FurryNutz]

AMEN to that!!!

here's my 2 pennies, if it aint broke dont fix it right? Well stoopid ol me did not follow this rule of thumb and guess what?? I' too am in the same boat as you with defective hardware! This really does s*ck!! But Don't Look no Further!!!

Originally I had an A1 unit experiencing mad wireless drops and no, there's no cordless phones in the house. So anyway,I complained and called tech support, boy do you have to work to get this thing replaced or refund but eventually I chose to get the unit replaced. I got an A2 and have to admit it  does look like its more stable than the A1. Just my 2 pennies I found on the ground.

Rad,

Please refrain from verbally assaulting other forum users.

I'm going to lock this thread as it has reached the end of it's usefulness.
