D-Link DIR-655 Xtreme N Gigabit Router review
The D-Link DIR-655 Xtreme N Gigabit Router displayed lightning-fast performance in short-range and mixed-mode tests; it offers Gigabit LAN ports and the latest in wireless security.

fast, used to be stable with firmware 1.21
After upgraded the firmware to 1.32NA, the router constantly freezes/reboots every 5~10 hours, and takes 10~20 minutes to get connections back. There is no way for me to downgrade and I have to live with it EVERYDAY
