| Review | Rating | Last Updated | Great for Repeating and Extending Wireless Network
You guys who use WEP/WPA etc are idiots... use MAC address filtering, and you don't need to use login/passwords. the MAC address filter will stop anyone attempting to connect from getting a IP address at ALL.
Anyways, I use the DWL-G810 as a wireless repeater to extend the range of my wireless net work, works great. Out house is 4,800 sq ft, and it's difficult to pass wireless signal from upstairs on one side of the house to downstairs on the other side, and this device placed half way point downstairs easily extends the network.
No experience using it as a bridge. | 5 | Today | Item is EOL and has a bios error
This particular product has a bios error on the board which causes the connection to reset. The product is also past End Of Life with D-Link, so they provide no support to remedy this problem. Purchase at your own risk. | 1 | Today | D-Link DWL-G810 sucks
This Wireless bridge completely sucked. The firmware was buggy never saved my information. It said it supported WPA which it did not have any fields for it. If i did get it to connect to my access point it would immediately disconnect. D-Link had always cool looking devices. This was a square plastic cheap box with a giant D on the front of it and a big annoying light on the front. This product could use a lot of redesign. Specially the firmware. I would not recommend for a wireless bridge. | 1 | Today | Does not play well with others
Stay away if you plan on using this with a Linksys router. Nothing I tried, over the span of two days, would get the thing to work for more than two minutes. Even putting the unit next to the router, 2 inches away, and it couldn't see it half the time, the other half it'd drop 90% of the packets.
Your mileage may vary, but note that this isn't the only review to highlight issues with Linksys routers. | 1 | Today | Defective product
I bought this device to connect my TiVo to my wireless G network. WPA encryption did not work. WEP didn't even work. Tried different firmwares but nothing worked. Don't look here if you want WPA. | 1 | Today | will not work with switch to be true bridge but....
I plugged it into the wan port of my vonage linksys router and nat'
ed to it and it works great.
Double nat will work in most setups may have to add static route for some.
But yeah it won't work just plugging it into a switch I think the device only allows one IP. (dlink want's consumers buying one for each device I suppose).
If you have a spare dsl/cable modem,linux skills, or other nat'ing device you got yourself a real cheap network bridge. | 4 | Today | DWL-G810 + Linksys WRT54G, don't go there
I was hoping to use the G810 as a nice little bridge for my network to a ethernet device but I ran into a few problems. #1, The firmware is buggy. I had to flash the firmware a couple times just to get the configuration console back and when I called tech support, their answer was often, "Unplug the power, wait 10 seconds, and plug it back in." #2, The WPA encryption doesn't work. This may be linked to #3. #3, it works for a few minutes and then quits until you power cycle it. Maybe it has something to do with the interconnectivity between the Dlink and Linksys products, but I could get this thing to serve about 3 webpages before it quit with the encryption turned off, and never got it to work with encryption turned on. My overall take, save yourself the hassle and the 4 hours of your life you'll never get back and don't try to get this thing working with a wrt54g. It seems to me that this is a very poor product and you'd likely save time and money by buying an additional wrt54g, flashing the firmware with sveasoft, and running it in client mode as a bridge. That's what I'm going to try next. | 1 | Today | With an Easy Setup and 802.11g speeds, this baby ROCKS!
I was able to follow the directions and get this puppy configured and setup without too much hassle (I had to change my subnet, not biggie since they show you how in the install guide thingy).
OK so after setting up I get to plugging it into anything and everything I can to make them online whever I want. note: I have a DI-624 wireless router that handles my wireless clients. I've "plug n played" this device in my Xbox, friends desktops, friends laptops, and even a network camera, and they all worked fairly easy once I got them their own IP address.
Plus the range of this combo-ed with the DI-624 make this an easy to choose Ethernet-to-Wireless adapter/converter simply because it works. | 5 | Today | Make a Switch into a Wireless Switch!
I use this to connect my Xbox, playstation 2, and networked media player, to my home network and the Intenret.
Basically I just setup this wireless bridge to be able to connect to my wireless network (connecting to a DI-624) which is connected to the Internet. Then this this wireless bridge plugged into one of the ports on my 5 port switch and my Xbox, PS2 and media player plugged into that same switch. So basically my switch is plugged into my network via this wireless bridge. I can use my Xbox online, my PS2 online, and my media player can access streaming audio online.
It's very convenient and I wish the two products I use (5-port switch and this wireless adapter) could be made into one product.
Either way, it works, and it works well. I never get dropped from my games, or my streaming music because of this wireless device, it's usually my cable modem.
I'd recommend this product for people with uses like mine.
| 5 | Today | Not a Bridge in the strict sense of the word
Can only serve an IP to a single machine and not a network,
so NOT a bridge in the strict sense of the word.
If this were made clear, I would rate it 4 star, for the
firmware is often unstable, but otherwise it works well. | 1 | Today |
