 Works better than advertized August 24, 2010
Oscar Kramer (Miami Beach)
I needed to bridge my wifi to a room in the house to provide ethernet connectivity there for a laptop, and two separate IP phones. I was concerned since the DAP-1522 is marketed towards connecting up an entertainment center. I figured IP is IP so it should work. I flipped the switch to bridge-mode, plugged in the devices, and set up the WIFI part to connect to my home WIFI router. It worked the first time. That is a FIRST! Make sure MAC cloning is enabled (I think it defaulted that way).
On the downside: signal reception was not as strong as expected. Seems like an external antenna would be a good design improvement. I had to put it out in the clear to get 75%, and that's just 3 walls (drywall) the signal had to go through. The laptop receives better.
I definitely would recommend for bridging ethernet LAN across WIFI.
 Excellent way to connect multiple wired computer to wireless August 24, 2010

Having several older computers that use wireless b or g, this allowed me to connect them to a wireless router on a different floor with no problem. I can now watch netflix movies with no buffering on a computer that using its wireless g re-buffered many times. Also my VPN connection is much more stable across the wired port of my work work computer.
I love this product ! August 11, 2010

I have tested many products with no success, and I dont care how much any product costs as long as the product works, and lives up to it's advertised features. This worked for me, and I am buying 4 more. I love it ! !

I have been running a DLink 614+ 802.11b router/access point for years, and finally decided I wanted better wireless performance. But I did not want to have to setup all the MAC filtering and port forwarding that works so well on the 614+, so I decided to try this little box in Access Point mode to just improve the wireless while keeping the 614+. Well, that was easy! Plugged it into a free ethernet port on my living room switch box and went to [...] and about two minutes later I had a wireless N network. Actually ran both wireless AP's for a while, one on channel 1 and the other on channel 11. Though both were on 2.4, they did not interfere with each other! Finally pulled the plug on the wireless on the 614+, and everything is working fine. Better speed, better range, security upgraded from 64bit WEP to WPA-AES, and a couple of extra ethernet ports if I need them. Very pleased.
Plugged it in, and it worked July 29, 2010

I'm fairly experienced with Home Networking so my experience may not hold true for all.
I set it to Auto, plugged it into a Cat5e network jack linked to my existing router and had another wireless network setup. The signal strength is 5 bars through a drywall ceiling and a wood floor.
I had to tweak a few settings and setup the WPA2 security but total time of setup was less than 30 minutes.
I have had to power cycle it like I did my old one (a Belkin) and it has been going for a month.
