D-Link DI-604 Ethernet Broadband Router

My wired broadband router is getting old and it seems that it is starting to perform a little less reliable and disconnections are kind of becoming frequent so I guess it’s time to change it. I got my little home network a new router, the D-Link DI-604, since the interface is new to me, I have to familiarize myself with it. Fortunately, the device’s user interface is pretty friendly so I got it setup easily. Though unfortunately, base on D-Link website, the product has already been discontinued as of June 1, 2008, I still managed to acquire one. I guess this device would just do fine for my simple home network needs.

dlink-di604The device has 4-port switch with 10/100 ethernet ports for direct connection of a small home or office network of up to 4 PCs or computer. After using it for a day, its performance so far is good. I just hope it would last long given that the product is now discontinued by D-Link.
