What our customer's say!

"Watchout for Silverlight", This is an excellent product for turning a wired ethernet port into a wireless port. I have used them for networking printers and for connecting a Linux machine that wouldn't work with USB wireless adapters. The only gotcha is that it cannot be configured with a connectiin to a machine that is using MS Silverlight. The only way I was able to figure this out was to find a reference to another D-Link device on their website that said it wouldn't configure with Silverlight. I turned off Silverlight and was able to configure it normally.


"Works great with Direct TV On Demand", I purchased this item to tie into my Direct Tv DVr to beta their On Demand Service. It works fine. a little convoluted to set up but once it was set up at my PC , I moved it to the TV and it worked great.

"Works as Advertised", Bought adapter to attached my DirecTV DVR to my network. Everything else on the network is Linksys but the form factor and WPA encryption made this device an attractive choice. I believe not all versions of the Linksys adapter support WPA. According to the documentation if I was on a fully D-Link system configuration would be automatic, can not vouch for that. Took me about a hour to get everything working together. This device fails the wife test. My wife just connected a new HP printer to the network, as a novice she would not have been able to hook up the D-Link without help. Did have to upgrade the G820 firmware to 2.20 to get the thing to work. For me it does not run particularly hot and has been stable since being installed a week ago. The small size makes the G820 a perfect fit and the throughput is fine. Given the ongoing price drops with electronics I am surprised the adapter has gone up in price here at Amazon since I bought it. Don't think it was onsale when I bought it.

"GREAT PRODUCT", i have had this product for almost a month now and i have had zero problems with it. it is always connected to my router and delivers great speed. when playing Call Of Duty 4 i always have a full signal.

"Easy to set up, but no support for WPA-PSK with AES", The device seems easy enough to set up, but I returned it within hours after discovering that it does not support AES as a cipher with WPA-PSK. Even though the D-Link website claims it does, after getting bounced around their tech support line for an hour a 2nd level person told me it does not actually support that recommended that I run the less secure TKIP cipher. nice. Guess I will give the Linksys a try.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"Does what it is supposed to", not the easiest config but not nearly as bad as other reviews would have you believe. Most of the "doesn't work" reviews can be attributed to user error.

It's worked flawlessly on my xbox1 and 360 for 2 years. Strong connection, good speed to both the linksys and dlink routers i have used it with.

Beats $99 for the ms 360 wireless adapter and works just as good

"Abysmal product - no support", As others have pointed out - it's difficult to configure. It does not allow you to change it's IP (produces Gateway Error), there's no documentation on how to use a pair of them to replace a cable (as mentioned in the product features). Tech support took about an hour to tell me that they had to refer my case to a more senior technician - that hand-off got dropped. Subsequent email requests for support have been unanswered.
DLink advertising is misleading at best - I will not purchase any DLink product again.


"Just awful. Never worked correctly.", As others have indicated, this unit is just awful. Runs hot, very difficult to configure, my unit failed within a few weeks. Generally speaking I like DLink stuff because it's simple, down-to-earth, and easy to configure. What a mistake the DWL-G820 has been. It's even been discontinued at the store where I bought it -- too many returns. Pass on this one.

"Works with PS3, Xbox 360, PC, setup is not easy", I use Dlink DI-624 router. Setup is not easy, I needed quite a bit of help
from tech support. It's working fine after that, downloaded a few GB of
demos from Xbox live and PS3 online, played PS3 online on COD3, no lag.
It also works with my PC.
I was holding out for the final N router and gaming adapter, but this is
good enough.

"Did not work with Apple Airport Extreme and PSP LF-PK1", I could not get this unit to work wirelessly with the Sony Locationfree LF-PK1 and an Apple Airport Extreme router.
I WAS able to use the Buffalo Technology AirStation Turbo G High Power Wireless Ethernet to stream TV to PSP wirelessly and across the internet.
Tech support was fine, the device was just incompatible with my apple router.
