So far router has been great without any dropped connections, set it up on a VDSL connection at home running at 80mbps DN 20mbps UP without any issues, set one up at a friend's house on a 2gbps DN 200mbps UP on BT fiber without any issues too, only thing that would have been nice is if all the antennas unscrewed for placement in a data cabinet, only 2 antennas unscrew, router runs relatively cool so hopefully should be stable

It's been about ten years since I bought somebody else's wifi router. Normally I make my own. But six antennae for £90 persuaded me to join the herd.After all these years, I'm just gobsmacked that they still don't do what dnsmasq does by preference, namely, to resolve hostnames of clients around the house to one another. E.g. if I have clients called pinky and perky who proffer their names to the DHCP, I should be able to ping "perky" or perhaps "perky.local" from pinky and vice versa. I can ping them by IP if I know it by asking each of them locally, and I can connect to any ports they serve from within the LAN. Just the DNS poops the party. Why?For this stupid reason I'm gonna have to deploy a raspberry pi or the like as a dnsmasq server and switch off the router's dogmatic DHCP.Some other points:* The WiFi is still too slow for a TV so I attach ethernet to it* There's an annoying shelf on the clip side of the ethernet ports so you can't get the plugs out unless you have very thin fingers.* The software is very basic.* It boots fast* You'll need a separate modem.* It wrongly forbids you from assigning fixed IPs outside of the DHCP range, but you can fool it by shrinking the DHCP range after assigning then.* It logs you out after about 30 seconds of inactivity and you can't adjust that.

I was using an AC3000 router from another brand with decent performance but then I decided to upgrade to Wi-Fi 6 because of the new iPhone featuring this new technology, to get the best performance when playing online with the PS5 and to be able to connect all the smart home devices I have in a more efficient way to the home network.The setup has been very easy through the D-Link app on my iPhone. The same app can also be used to monitor the router status after the installation. Traditional web interface is also available.Despite the good performance of the previous router, the X5460 has been a noticeable upgrade. My ISP is Virgin Media (just below 600Mb download speed) and their hub is set in bridge mode with the new D-Link router doing the NAT. Internet pages just open instantly and when gaming I do not have lag at all. Even with multiple devices connected at the same time, the network response is always blazing fast on all clients even with intense traffic. Speed is great also when transferring big files from or to the NAS through cable or Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi coverage is great and the router automatically assigns the clients to the best band available to optimize the connection.I really recommend this router featuring matte and gloss finish that perfectly matches with the rest of my living. The LEDs on the front light up in white and do not blink to show network activity. They are also not too bright. This is another plus because they do not distract me when watching TV with lights off like the previous router I had. It is also possible to turn them completely off.With this router I am sure that I will not need additional upgrades for a long time.

i got this router as advised by an I.T specialist from work, my broadband was only showing 50mb instead of up to 200mb that i pay for, i had several calls with my provider who were unable to speed up my network, as soon as i started using this as hub instead of the low quality kit supplied by my proovider my speed increased to 160 -210mb, no more drop outs and a low ping, well worth the money.

Immediate speed increases from the word go. Plenty of power to handle a house full of devices and capable of saturating 1 gigabit connection.The ability to add mesh nodes is good too

No power so returned

I brought this router to make the most of the gigabit internet I now have access to.Where I had previously run an ethernet cable to my smart TV, I can now stream 4k media seamlessly over the wireless network.The signal in other rooms of the house is noticeably better since I upgraded from the router that my ISP provided, I had previously used a powerline adapter to extend the signal up to the first floor but I've taken it out as the wireless seems to be better just using the router now that I've upgraded.Really happy with this purchase and would recommend this router to anyone looking to upgrade/ future proof using Wifi 6 technology.

I’m an enthusiast and I always have the latest gear to keep up with today’s technology as we are moving into 5G and Gigabit Fibre. After comparing with other Mesh Wi-Fi 6 Tri-Band routers, the D-Link DIR-X5460 EXO AX5400 out performed them with far better signal reach for a Wi-Fi 6 Dual-Band router and at a reasonable price. You can ensure your network will meet its demands whether you’re using smart tech at home, working, streaming or gaming.
