Dont buy this dlink
I bought this product as an upgrade from the SMC Barricade. I wish I had not. I have had constant problems with this device rebooting, sometimes as much as every 30 seconds. I have been onto D-Link support (which is very poor) and had 4 versions of the OS and still have problems. I even had problems where the device would reboot and act as a hub not a firewall it would then pass the DHCP request through from my ISP to my PC and BANG no firewall and you can then get attacked.
In the end D-Link could do no more so asked for the product to be returned. They even asked me to disable the 8X and G mode, but I expect people are buying it for this. D-Link could not explain why 2 devices would reboot. I returned the product to e-buyer and received a replacement (which was very quick and easy). But a brand new device, preloaded with latest firmware, still the same problem of rebooting. STAY WELL CLEAR OF THIS PRODUCT. Check the Internet, there are lots of people having the exact same problem.
