Review on 🔌 D-Link DIR-1260: High Power Gigabit Ethernet Dual Band Mesh Wi-Fi Router with Parental Control for Home Gaming by Jerimiah Augustine

V Overall, this router is a definite improvement over the regular router sent to me by my ISP. It handles high traffic much more efficiently, I have three desktops in my house, three game consoles, and when my kid's friends come over, over a dozen phones and consoles are connected to Wi-Fi. It would really get bogged down in my old router, but this is where the built-in dual-core D-Link processor shines. The interface is simple and easy to use, it has many options for advanced users, the best of which is the ability to assign bandwidth priority to certain devices, the signal range is great, probably almost 4 times that of my old router. There's only one criticism, so I'm giving it four stars overall: The router should automatically assign devices to two different WiFi networks, if the device supports 5G it should connect to a 5G network, and if it's not 5G then only then connect it to 2.4GHz. However, this does not apply to me, my PC is connected via Ethernet, but my wife and stepson's computers are connected via WiFi, they both have WiFi adapters with 5G support, but they are often connected to the 2G network, since there were 5G phones. It wasn't always like that, I'd say 60% of the time the devices connected correctly, but that meant 40% of the time most of the devices were on the 2G network, which made things really difficult. So I had to solve this problem by disabling this feature and creating two separate 5G and 2G networks. Also, it works like a charm.
