Review: no 5g as yet - I am in a week 5g area and use external antenners, and on the odd occation i get a 5G signal but only get 56 to 70Mbps down but and I say BUT if you do 4g only i end up with (sometimes) 220 - 240 Mbps this is with EE again in a lowish area but My antenners are quite large.. Mostly it between 120 and 160Mbps and 40-60upload on average. The only niggly thing which i am not sure if its the router or ee is that I have to reset it on a daily basis ( you can set it manually to do thisd) to keep a decent signal.. other than that, I used to have a mr600 v2 which gave me a max of 88Mbps and I though that was good :) Would I recomend it. For 4G OH yes most defenatly, for 5G well seeing as I don't have a very good 5G signal thats a dificult one but I am sure if I did have a 5G signal it would not dissapoint.
Review: Worst router I've ever owned, and the last D-Link product I will ever buy - I live in a semi-rural area just outside of London with no FTTP available to me. I have a top-tier Vodafone 5G mobile internet subscription. The local 5G mast is approx 1 mile away and I have line-of-sight to it from my house. I also have an external 5G antenna pointing directly at the mast, connected to the router's MIMO inputs with some pretty tough cables. Everything should be set up perfectly for a stable and fast mobile internet. I've used D-Link products quite extensively in the past (mainly network switched) and had no problems, so although this router looks 'dated' I trusted the brand. It was fairly cheap compared other routers at the time and I thought I could balance reliability and price with the D-Link. What a mistake. I've owned it for 2 months and had nothing but trouble. Like other reviews here, I'm seeing drop-outs, weak 4-and-5G signal (even with my external antenna!), no 5G signal at all when using the router's own 5G antennas, frequent freezes, etc. The feature set is appalling for any modern router: * No static DHCP reservation * No support for security standards above WPA2 (even my iPhone keeps warning me that the network's security is weak) * No client list page, just a small pane on the router's admin panel homepage * No option to install a VPN * In-built 'speedtest' feature doesn't work - it always says "failed". The feature has been removed from recent documentation updates but it's still in the router's menu * No firmware updates available (apart from a minor patch version a long time ago) * The router body is huge, top-heavy, and cannot be wall-mounted * The 4 ethernet ports are in the most awful position, and the stand doesn't have cut-outs for the cable. So you have to decide between passing the cable under the stand and un-balancing the entire router until it falls on its face, or bending your cable into an unnatural 90-degree shape so you can still keep the router upright * System log doesn’t log anything useful at all, and it appears to get wiped when the router is rebooted As for specific problems with mine: * The 5G light doesn't light up on the front hardware panel, even though the admin page tells me I have a signal * It drops the connection so frequently, I've had to set it to reboot early every morning * It often freezes while my wife and I are both on conference calls * One weekend it had such awful performance I went into the admin panel to try debugging, and I saw a whole load of garbled data pre-filled in the WAN connection parameters form * The admin panel stops responding from time-to-time * Even with my external antenna pointing at a mast close-by, the strongest 5G signal I can get is "3 bars" at -105dbm * Sometimes it doesn't recover from its daily scheduled reboot and it sits with its lights off like an expensive white plastic brick until I hard-reboot it by pulling the plug. It 'bricked' itself again this morning and I've had enough, which is why I've come back to leave this review. I'm now outside of the desertcart return window so I don't even know if I'll be able to get my money back. I'm so desperate for a reliable router that I've ordered a TP-Link to arrive today. The D-Link will probably sit gathering dust in my garage for several years as a monument to a costly mistake, until enough time has passed that I don't feel shame and anxiety any more (and that my wife has forgotten about how much money I spent on it), and I can take it to the dump.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This hub has an easy to use set-up wizard
*by R***D on 12 June 2025*

This hub has an easy to use set-up wizard and allows advanced settings for the technically minded to play with IPv4 and IPv6 wi-fi and it accepts various sized Sim Cards in the same slot (micro size sits on a tray). It has both an 3G/LTE mobile network ariel and a wi-fi ariel, either or both maybe replaced with an external ariel in poor reception areas. It doesn't appear to have as sensitive a receiver part as my old D-link hub had (no internet available at around -67dBm) using my 6M high externally mounted ariel, so only gets four stars, because I needed change mobile provider to get a more usable signal.
