Worked out of the box.

Bought this because not too dear & likely to be the most compatible with my similar D-Link DSL-2890AL modem/router. Biggest install challenge was really which operational mode to select - Access Point, Range Extender, or Media Bridge. (Most people wouldn't have a clue which to choose out of that tech-speak.) After that, it was straight-forward & quick hook in 1st time. Dropped connection & needed dual re-boot after 12 hrs but stable since. Only slight annoyance is I can't "see" which wireless devices are linked to extender, as I can with primary router.

Happy family!

The extender has made a huge difference to our internet connection throughout the house. No drop-outs, no complaints. Bliss!

Pretty good!

Its not simple but once its working its a good extender

Excellent product.

Bought this expand my Wi-Fi reach at home. Great that it has 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi. I needed help to remember how to set my laptop to the same subnet as the DLink AC1200 to set up, and DLink Help desk was brilliant for that. Excellent coverage now.

Slow as anything

Took forever to setup even though saying "setup at the touch of a button". internet as slow as anything on it. Waste of money

More than just a range extender, the DAP-1650 can be pressed into service as an access point or a media bridge, and it offers solid 5GHz throughput speed and range. Its price tag is fairly reasonable, compared with our top pick for range extenders, the Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 Wi-Fi Range Extender (EX7000), but it can't match the Nighthawk's performance or feature set.Design and Features With its cylindrical shape, the DAP-1650 looks nothing like a typical range extender. It measures 5.76 by 3.7 by 4.6 inches (HWD) and has a black, semi-gloss finish with a circle of red trim on top. The front of the device has a power status indicator and an Internet status indicator, and around back are four gigabit Ethernet ports, a Reset button, a Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) button, a Power button, and a USB port.

The D-Link AC1200 Dual Band Gigabit Range Extender DAP-1650 is an affordable four-port range extender that also works as a media server and an access point and offers solid 5GHz performance.

Reasonably priced; Strong 5GHz performance; Four Gigabit LAN ports; Many configuration options

Middling 2.4GHz range; USB port is only 2.0
