Fast, Great Range & Simple Set up, perfect for NBN
This is a great router for NBN, pretty much just plug in and use the D-link app to set up in minutes, very easy. This unit will cover your entire home with no dead spots even in the ensuite! iThe signal goes through walls like they almost aren't even there.

The D-Link EXO is quite an interesting router in that while it is a full-fledged AC1900 solution, the platform underneath is quite new, to me at least.

Very Iffy about this purchase.
Right now the Router is running stable, it's a little warm but nothing to be concerned about. I will be purchasing a cheap laptop cooler to make sure it does not overheat. I have played a few hours on World of Warcraft and my latency is about 30 – 40 ms, I get the same results when connected...
Pros:
- ***Update*** 6/22/2017
Cons:
- -Shame on newegg in regards to packaging
- I understand that the Router comes in a box with some foam padding but I do not understand why the shipping box had padding only on 2 sides of the product
- The Router itself had something loose inside of it

Pros:
- The D-Link DIR-879 is fast
- looks cool and at $140
- is pretty affordable
Cons:
- The web-based user interface lacks some customization features
- You must manually update the router's firmware before it works as intended
