Getting it wendsday. $70.99 brand new from NewEgg! I could get it Tuesday but it goes from 2 day free to 1 day $21 so I'll wai hahha.  My first ac router but dont really need wireless only my phone optimus g pro has wireless ac.

Kewl, keep us posted on how it does. I still like the little 826L. 

[hyelton]

Well so far I like the 826L a lot better. Ping is Terrible! with nothing going on 100% stock no setting changed Wired and wireless Stock shipping firmware and latest Ping on my 826l and even my DIR-601 is between 5 and 25ms. With this its around 60-70ms. So I think I got a dud!

And QOS is a pain. It has BOTH up and down QOS. I only want UPlink qos and nothing else. QOS does not seem to work either even with setting my QOS to half of my 2 meg upload to 1 meg it still uploads at the FULL 2 megs and ping goes up to almost 1,000

[FurryNutz]

What FW version is loaded currently on the 850L?

[hyelton]

1.07

[FurryNutz]

Did it come with it or did you loaded it? If you loaded it, factory reset before and after update?

What ISP modem and model do you have again?

1.07

[hyelton]

It came with 1.03. Did a Factory Reset after first hooking it up.  Ping sucked so I upgraded to the latest firmware, did another factory reset ping still sucks. and Upload QOS seems to not work properly either, as when uploading even with it set to 1024kbps it still makes my ping jump to over 1,000 when uploading. While ALL OTHER routers any brand including other dlinks I usually set it to about 1985kbps and my latency is always below 70 when uploading.

[hyelton]

Also whats sad is I hooked up my DIR-601 and bam no issues and my DIR-601 has tons of setting changes in it.

[FurryNutz]

Let me see if I can get some information on this...
What model modem do you have?

[hyelton]

Cisco DPC3010

Also same problems with the MOTOROLA SB6121 modem.

But I can use my DIR-601 and my Ping to my local office goes from 45ms(DIR-850L) to 8-9ms(DiR-601)

[FurryNutz]

Good info, thanks...I presume there could be a problem with either FW or HW... 

[hyelton]

I`d hope fw.

I had been testing out the DIR-601 for a week seeing how a $8 referb router could handle 20 or so devices. Which it did well! not one hiccup!

[FurryNutz]

It's a good little router for general stuff. Can't game on it well. 

[hyelton]

Any update on the 850L?

[FurryNutz]

It's under review now with D-Link. Please be patient while they review it. Not sure when we'll get more information.
