Summary: Great Dual band Router not Dual Radio 2008-08-17
Comment: Wonderful product had it up and running in about 20 minutes does both 2.4ghz and 5.8ghz N wireless. The amazon technical details say clearly that the router supports "selectable" 2.4 and 5.8 wireless signals, the box and the D-link web site say the same thing. There is no implication of having both 2.4 and 5.8 running at the same time, were that the case it would be a dual radio router and somewhere around 250$. You run one or the other. Having 5.8 in a 80$ product is remarkable. If you have an 802.11A client you can use that with this router. There are not many 5.8 802.11N clients on the market right now, they will get here someday.

The DIR-628 is up running and doing a great job in my house. I am using it in 2.4 mode with a N client but it is nice to know I can grab a 5.8 card when they are ready and not change out my router.

Summary: Not true dual-band support 2008-07-07
Comment: Unfortunately, even though this is among the very few Wireless-N routers that can do dual-band, it is falsely advertised. You have to select between 2.4 and 5 GHz outright, and cannot use both simultaneously. As a result, to take advantage of 5 GHz, every single connected device must not only have Wireless-N capability, but also Wireless-N dual-band capability, and set to function at 5 GHz. Even just one 2.4 GHz device, whether 802.11b, g or n, spoils the whole dual-band feature and you're back to having a plain vanilla Wireless-N router. Don't be fooled by this cheap marketing gimmick. D-Link plainly and simply cut corners to keep the cost down, mooting the dual-band feature for almost every single customer.
