Review on πŸ”Œ D-Link DWL-810+ Ethernet to Wireless Bridge: Enhanced Connectivity at 22Mbps by Brett Tierney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works like a dream

It was a little blurry at first, but when I decided to change the subnet everything worked as expected. I connected it to my PS2 and started playing within minutes. I even used it for my MP3 music network. My only issue (and the reason I didn't give it 5 stars) is the range issues I've had in my house. I have an old house with lots of walls between my wireless router and where I wanted to put my access point. I am using a Trendnet TEW-311BRP wireless router. When I set up an access point in the basement, I couldn't get a reliable signal. I had other wireless devices (like a laptop) and they worked fine. To get the 810+ to work I had to buy a booster antenna. It was $20. But still cheaper than switching to a G or spending $60 for an extended range (which I did but returned).

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Almost everything is there
