I have been updating my DIR-655 with the recent wave of firmware versions. Currently running the latest version, which I downloaded from the D-Link FTP site.
However I still have some serious problems...
After a few days, pages started to load slowly all of a sudden, after that images and website layout are gone (and only text is displayed) and after that I get 404's...
I already tried 30/30/30 (clearing nvram) several times, redid all my settings manually, disabled QOS and stuff... The only thing that remains for me to do, is disable to DNS relay, but I really do not want to do that, cause I will have to make adjustments to every PC connected to the router, right?
I use openDNS as nameservers...
One and more thing; I am not sure, but I didn't have these problems with firmware 1.21 or something. But I am not to sure, since it has been a while ago...
//edit
I have a DIR-655 with Hardware Version: A2

Have you tried taking the router out of the equation to see if maybe there is an issue with your Internet connection itself?
-
Do you run DNS relay?

It has to be either the firmware or the router wireless card. I have the same issue. Yes if you use another brand for wireless G access point or another brand for wireless N access point thus shutting down wireless on A3 then the problem goes away. I can connect to my ISP business site wired but not wireless. It use to work but after 1.22B05 after 1 month it has blocked ISP to and from my wireless laptop. So I had tried two wireless access points and they connect just fine. I've re-flashed to 1.30NA and it still does it.. Though the connection is stronger.. by 10% All 80% is now 90%...
no connect (other sites will connect) Note wired connection will connect through this router.

Like stated in my first post, I use DNS relay, cause I have several computers hooked up onto the router.
Also stated; I didn't have any of these problems with firmware 1.21
The problems occur on my wired connection, dunno about the wireless though, but since I work wired, it has / is a problem for me.
I was very happy at first with this router when I bought it (almost a year ago), but now I am having second thoughts.

Wired works, just wireless has issues.. Firmware glitch.. Can't use 40Hz for some reason it won't work. Auto/20/40Hz shows the router up.

Your NIC needs to support 40Hz and most NICs don't
