D-Link DIR-857 Pro Reviews

smallnetbuilder‘s review Edit

Simply put, D-Link is way late to market with an "N900" router that really doesn't give folks looking to upgrade much of a reason to select it. The best argument for buying the DIR-857 is that it has high wired routing throughput. It is also one of the few routers you can buy that still uses Ubicom's automatic QoS technology that is a boon to folks trying to wring the most out their woefully low internet upload bandwidth. If your heart is set on one of the "HD Media" D-Links, I think the two-stream ("N600") DIR-827 is the better buy and slightly better performer. Check out this Performance Table and see if you agree.

PC Magazine‘s review Edit

D-Link's DIR-857 router, is a decent device and some will be attracted to the built-in SD card reader, but less-than-impressive performance, some issues with rebooting, and some lag streaming high-definition means there are better choices for high-end dual-band routers.

PC Advisor‘s review Edit

Although the DIR 857 is an excellent device, we question whether it's worth spending so much on an 802.11n router right now, when the newer and potentially faster 802.11ac standard is just around the corner. But if you're after excellent performance today from a known standard, the DIR-857 is a good choice.

CNET Reviews‘s review Edit

With stellar performance on the 5GHz frequency band and a nice set of features, the Amplifi HD Media Router 3000 DIR-857 would be an excellent buy if you're seeking an advanced router for your home network, especially if you do a lot of media streaming.
