Customer Ratings & Reviews

I replaced my old D-Link DL-624 router with the DIR-890 and was impressed by just how much progress D-Link has made in the past several years. The speed is phenomenal. I have FiOs 75/75 service and observe that I can get upwards of 35 Mbps up/down on my iPad. This is about 5-10 times faster than my previous D-Link router. In addition, I was able to plug in a USB3.0 hard drive into the router to serve as a DLNA media server for my home movies and TiVo recordings. This feature is a real bonus. The footprint of this unit is significantly larger than any of its predecessors. Because the router shares space with a large switch, VoIP box, and the external drive, I wound up buying a cheap monitor stand to elevate the DIR-890 a few inches above the other equipment. The router was easy to configure and I could set quality of service for key IPs around the house. Like my first Router, D-Link continues to provide a great router that has advanced our home up to the next level of Internet performance.

I've had several wired and wireless routers throughout the years. This one puts them all to shame. I have a two story house with just over 3,000 sqft....I receive full signal throughout house with exception of far downstairs corner (that's 4 bars). I pay for 50mb service and pull 62mb speeds wired and wireless. This router has been a great upgrade for my network. Zero issues so far and it's been running nonstop for 2 months.

Had the unit installed and running for about 5 weeks all is good. Really easy setup and I love the way it looks! I hung it at the top of my basement stairs to centralize it in my colonial.

Good- Easy to set up, at this point no dropped connections, good signal, good interface, doesn't feel cheap. Bad- what keeps me from giving it 5 stars is the fact that if you are a network guru and like assigning IP's to your devices you can only assign 20 devices. With todays world most homes have more than 20 clients. On Dlink's blog they suggest that you assign a static ip from the device itself. Problem with that is in the world of mobile devices 20 is nothing and who wants to have to change ip address info when you leave home and once again when arriving back home. I sure wish they would change this. Only other issue GUI freezes up some times and you have to close and reopen. Lastly I wish they would change the time out screen, it is much to quick. SO- if you don't play with your routers too much it would be great, if you like playing you might want to wait to see if they make changes.

We live in a house built in 1926. 2-story with a finished attic. In the past I've tried several routers, power lines, extenders. Always had a dead spot at the far end of the house. Unfortunately, that was the TV room. I would have spotty wireless signal. Way to weak to stream Netflix on TV. Spotty signal to the 3rd floor office & stereo listening room as well. Bought the D-Link - AC3200 Ultra Wireless-AC Wi-Fi Router and was I glad I did. Easy set up to say the least. Within minutes I was up & running. Strong signal to all areas of our home. Able to enjoy Netflix with no issues at all. 3rd floor great signal too. Even able to use out in my Harley Shed 125 feet from house. Buy this, it rocks...

D link AC3200 Ultra Wireless-AC Wi-Fi Router was very easy to set up. 15 minutes and BAM coverage everywhere including my yard. Handles all my connections with no dropouts or bottle necks. BEST BUY shipping was very fast.

I'm using the AC-3200 at home and at the office and it's a great router. I'd recommend this product if your looking for a high speed device however the price is a little steep. If price is not an option makes the purchase, you won't be disappointed.

Great router! Very fast and connection is great! So many options on set up from novice to advanced users. Very easy to set up as well.

This router is amazing! With my old router I was pulling 60megs down and 20ish up.. Now I'm getting on the same device 90/105down and 27up.. With a large house hold and everybody streaming I've never experienced any slow down.. This router has been on for 3 weeks and still no lock up or resetting!! If you can afford the steap price tag, it's a must Hands down!

I bought this new router, to replace my existing DIR – 825 D-Link (I loved the old one)due to a new home purchase that was approximately twice as large as the old home on two levels 5400SqFt. Set up was easy, enabling some of the features I liked about the old one were a little bit more difficult, contacted tech support with a question talk to technician "Ford" Who was very helpful and updated the firmware to the latest version, and explain to me how to use the share drive utility in the same fashion as the old D-Link. reference number : C6713129 agent id: AR004620

Stronger signal, greater range for wifi. Very easy to set up.

This router has a good range, great coverage and is super fast. I have no complaints. However, it is big compared to other routers but performance outweighs the size.

The D-Link DIR-890L is a solid router and easily handles wired / wireless devices connected without any issues! The latest BETA firmware made the D-Link DIR-890L an even better router. I've had no issues when gaming with two Xbox One consoles on Xbox Live (simultaneously). Streaming Netflix and surfing the internet are a breeze! If you're looking for a router to handle all your wired / wireless devices, you won't be disappointed with the D-Link DIR-890L! The D-Link Support Forums is also a great resource for any D-Link product.

I bought this router because I wanted to replace my nighthawk r7000. There is a known issue with the nighthawk corrupting data in a connected USB drive. I did a bunch of speed tests all throughout my house and property with my nighthawk and with this replacement. In short, this router performed awesome terms of coverage. I got coverage in places I never had before, and about 100 feet further in my yard. However, the speed at places where I had coverage with the r7000 was about a third to half that of the r7000. I cannot understand how this router would be slower at the same distances than the r7000. Took it back. Ended up buying a new NAS instead and kept the r7000. Really wanted to like this.

Awesome router. Expensive but my last router was a N+ router bought 6 years ago and I don't upgrade very often. This red alien ship will carry the load for many years to come. I also get strong wifi in my front and back yard with no drop-offs which is great streaming music will working in the yard. Our home has about 8 devices running on wifi including PS4, Tivo, cell phones, iPads, printer and home security system. We have not encountered any slow down whatsoever and never a drop off sine installed.

When spending this amount of money you expect a lot of performance. Like most households with a couple teens, my old router would not keep up. I have 30mps from Time Warner. And now my son can play Xbox online, my daughter can stream video and mom and I can go on iPads and phones. No lag, no more lock ups or reboots required. We no longer have to give internet access any thought, just the way it should be. This product works and works well.

I am getting 126mps on wireless (same as wired) measured on Comcast speed test. Spend the money for this router if you want/need exceptional performance. Read the review in PCMagazine. It won every category except USB hard drive speed.

awesome router. Hold strong signal works perfectly in my 2000sq ft house covering everyone. I would highly recommend this and would purchase it again.

This router performs as advertised. I WAN download speed is 310mbps the router is connected to the WAN modem. The AC signal is with my devices is constant between 450 - 875. Wireless devices like my TV, DVR and DVD all work at a much more consistent rate. I have 3 computers connected to the Ethernet ports and all systems have incredible through put. The router is great.

The D-Link - AC3200 Ultra Wireless-AC Wi-Fi Router is my 3rd DLink router. And the best yet.
