    "5 Ghz Doesn't Work"

    by shjarrett on February 12, 2009

    Pros: 2.5 Ghz works.

    Cons: 5 Ghz network wouldn't broadcast an SSID in an open system there was just no signal. Also networked computers would not communicate with each other.

    Summary: The less expensive dlink 655 is a better router. Although it only has one band, the dual bands are very and a lot of people are complaining about problems. Also there are 2 versions of this model or could it be just two different face plates? I'd stay away from dual bands unless you have a lot of positive, glowing reviews.

    Don't forget to change the IP range in the firewall of your client computers. It usually isn't the fault of the router. If you are changing routers, some DHCP's assign ranges like 192.168.1.100 - 192.168.1.199 and this one uses default 192.168.0.100 - 192.168.0.199. There is a good chance that your firewall doesn't allow it.
