Not worth it
Always loved D-link devices but this router is the worst one I have ever had. Don't be fooled with all the new tech in this device.
Pros:
- Easy setup
Cons:
- Didn't work out of the box
- Smart connect didn't work
- Dropping signal
- Hard line devices not working
- No better than a AC1900. Waste of money & time

It seems to work as described, BUT 1) there is a loose screw rattling around in the case - I can see it through the ventilation slots. 2) as others have said, the power lead is ridiculously short - approx. 1 metre. Although it can be wall-mounted you would need a rather high socket to do this.

IPv6 problem
I upgraded from an older D-link product and was disappointed to find I could not get IPv6 to work with my Comcast Native IPv6 modem. My older D-link worked fine using IPv6 protocol. I returned the unit for a different brand as IPv6 internet connectivity is important to me.

Problem with no 802.11b support
I have a Fitbit scale that requires the old 802.11b wifi to work. I'm also having problem with my Moto Z2 rebooting about every 20 minutes. So I installed my old Netgear router with 802.11b and my scale works great. A surprise my Moto stopped rebooting after connecting it to the old router. Jerry

D-Link DIR-882 AC2500 MU-MIMO Router Hardware
If you don't buy your PC's ready made, chances are you've gone through the setup and configuration frustration phase. That time when you first get everything plugged in where it should be and things seem ready to go. However when you click the switch and hope for everything to work… nothing happens.

D-Link EXO AC2600 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi Router
The D-Link EXO AC2600 router (DIR-882) has everything you'd expect and more for $150. (It's around £125 in the UK, and it's AU$350 on D-Link's Australian site .) It's a dual-band 802.11ac router with one 2.4GHz band and one 5GHz band, having theoretical speeds of 800Mbps and 1.7Gbps, respectively.
Pros:
- Affordable and fast with all the latest features
- like MU-MIMO
- beamforming
- multiple USB ports and four spatial streams
Cons:
- Customizing your settings can take awhile
- D-Link advertises support for 160MHz channels, but this router currently can't use them
- Very low flash memory

Review: D-Link DIR-882 EXO AC2600 MU-MIMO Wi-Fi Router
A simple, fast and inexpensive router
8 years ago
It has been a little bit since we last tested a DLink solution and it was good to see what they have been up to. With that said, its quite apparent with the 882 that build quality wasn't the number one goal. The enclosure of the router feels hollow and plastics are very cheap.

D-Link EXO AC2600 review: A simple, affordable router
The EXO AC2600 is a very sensible router. The design is compact and scrupulously sober, and the technical specification carefully ticks all of the important boxes, without wasting too much effort and expense on niche features.
Pros:
- Practical design
- Good wired connectivity
Cons:
- Limited range
- Not the fastest on the market

D-Link DIR-882 Gigabit Wi-Fi Router, MU-MIMO, Dual-Band AC2600, 4 x Gigabit LAN, 1 x Gigabit WAN, 2 x USB, 4 x High-Gain Antennas, Fibre Ready, Whole Home Wi-Fi Ready
Plugged-in to our VDSL Spark Modem and turned wifi off on the modem. Powered on the router, set a wifi password and connected all the families devices by either wifi or cable. What a difference in speed. Wow! Thanks D-Link what a difference.
