D-Link DI-524 Router Easy To Use

We recently had Sattellite Internet installed. My husband wanted to network his laptop computer with the new service. We used the D-Link DI-524 Router.

This was resolved as soon as I deleted all the connections to the other Isp Provider.

We bought this router to hook up a second computer in a house with a rather spread out floor plan. We were worried that the second computer would be too far away but this D-link router works great.

The best notebook adapter is actually a Microsoft wireless B ...

Got this router free after rebate a few years ago at an after thanksgiving sale. I purchased it with low expectations, and three years later it's still running and running well.
