  • Innovative tower desig, No external antenna, Inexpensiv, Useful software
  • Disappointing rang, Low throughpu, No guest network option
  • The inexpensive D-Link DGL-5500 looks cool and has powerful networking software, but it falls flat on speed and range. If looks, price tag and software matter more than raw networking performance, D-Link's DGL-5500 router is for you. While it's...

  • The D-Link DGL-5500 is a gaming router with up to AC1300 speeds. Ideally, it is possible to find a channel that is free from interference. However, finding a clear channel is a near impossibility when everything seems to have a wireless component to it....

  • D-Link's current best performing 11ac router. Streamboost works well in testing. Decent throughput, especially at 2.4GHz.
  • Too many features in UI depend on Streamboost enabled. UI performance a bit lethargic
  • D-Link's DGL-5500 (with a just-released firmware update) offers performance superior to past D-Link 11ac routers. The new Streamboost feature did give video streaming a true boost in testing. However, the refreshed web-based interface needs some enhancem...

  • The D-Link DGL-5500 Gaming Router AC1300's StreamBoost feature that intelligently prioritizes Internet bandwidth for gaming and real-time online applications
  • The router lacks support for DynDNS and has a confusing interface. Performance is disappointing, especially compared with that of similarly priced routers
  • The DGL-5500 has a lot of potential, but for now isn't worth its high price.
