This router sucks. I have to set up a new network almost every time I use it. There is no support for this product. I wish I had bought anything else.
For the price, this is a great product. Have never had any problems with it, and for under $10 it has been an amazing purchase. Has held up to almost a year in a college dorm, and it still runs great. Never drops connections or overheats.
This router was dead on arrival right out of the box. It won't even power on. I am promptly returning it and going to go for a more popular brand. I tried this one to save money but I guess you get what you pay for.
Contacting Dynex is an exercise in futility. Firewalling is disabled. In my experience - This thing is a hunk of junk with crummy support.The router stops forwarding packets at least twice a day, requiring at least a reboot from the interface, at most a power cycle. I made the mistake of having a coworker pick me up a router "while they were out". Live and learn. [Grrr].I have very little port forwarding (just two ports) and traffic is moderately low.
We've already established that) again for the moment - they say their brief good-byes and consider the "solution" acceptable.
Have a look at their site before you consider this unit: No firmware updates, no email support (strictly phone).
Junk.
Gihugic mistake.
So the load on the router is certainly not to blame.Upshot.
When I phone them, they want me to reboot the router.
Ok - reboot the router, it's working (duh.
I guess I'll pick my own router next time.

I don't like a wireless router even it's the mainstream now. I thought it would take more than 5 mins to set this up but it took a min to set it up. Connections get messed up very easily from heavy using internet at home. At the store, ethernet routers are now very expensive, so I got this item here. Very easy for even a beginner internet user. I recommend +++++.
