 Makes your wireless card a full modem Oct 28, 2007
By T. Ceglarek
I use this router with a pcmciaa Sierra aircard on the Cingular/ATT network. I'm very pleased it extended the capabilities of the card from simply allowing access from my lap top to using it as my overall internet connection at home. Speed is sufficient to play Final Fantasy on the Xbox and even hook up the Vonage router to make phone calls. It's certainly not as fast as my old wired dsl connection but that is not the router's fault just the fact of the cingular/att wireless network. For me this router saves me 50 bucks a month by allowing me to drop my wired connection. I grab my aircard when I leave for work in the morning and then after work and weekends just leave it in the DLink router for around the house always on internet connection. Great router I bet it would be a big seller if more people knew about it.

 Check you Service provider Jun 16, 2008
By TechsysT
The router worked as promoted, but I purchased it to host a internet camera at a remote site. At&t does not allow hosting on their broadband cards, so the service provider was the problem. Its in their contract. Check your service provider details for their cards before purchasing. Amazon was GREAT, they allowed me to return the product. I will use Amazon for all my purchased for now on.

 d-link router not compatible with their own d-link 3g card. need to buy other brand. Oct 04, 2010
By nairbv
I originally bought this to use with M1 service; M1 provided me with a huawei 3g modem. This worked fine, but when I changed plans I had to return the modem and planned to buy my own.
I brought the router to a store to look for a compatible 3g modem. The guy at the store told me I need a firmware update just to use it with d-link's own 3g card. The firmware page says the update will make it support their d-link DWM-156 3g modem [...], which I was hoping to buy. It didn't work. The guy at the store called d-link. A few hours later I still don't have a working 3g modem, and I'm not sure what I can buy around here that will work (the huawei ones are mostly only rented out by telco's).
If d-link can't even make their own 3g-routers work with their own 3g-modems, that seems like a problem.
Looking around online, I see others with the same issue:
