By Dong Ngo (zdnet.com)

The D-Link DGL-4500 GamerLounge Xtreme N Gaming Router offers decent performance and a long list of features for home wireless networking and hardcore gamers. However, it lacks support for simultaneous 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands along with random resets ...

"Very good performance so far"

By B_F_G_ (cnet.com)

I really like this router and all the feature... 

The router is all around a good buy at this time. I haven't had any problems like all the other listed reviews, that's why I decided to review it myself

I do wish the display had a setting that would allow you to keep the display on at all times. It's very bright at night, in the dark. So maybe they took that into consideration

"Worst router"

By WannaRip2278 (cnet.com)

This router is horrible. It kicks your modem ... 

Their is nothing good about this router it simply doesnt work

Lockups, does nothing as advertised, online gaming has alot of lag. LCD screen stays on for 30 seconds and is useless. Dlink can not fix FW issues. Its been a year. Has to be reset constantly for PS3 and home comp. Runs hot

"Best router for home office I have ever used"

Everything works and works reliably with this router, including multiple VPN connections from multiple virtual machines running on the same computer. Those who reported poor stability most likely never upgraded from the default firmware level

Hard to come up with. If possible I would like to disable blue light on the front surface
