The D-Link DIR-855 looks and feels sturdy, but this quality comes at a price. As you might expect from its price tag, its a high-spec device with true dual-band capability. This means it can simultaneously broadcast draft-n at both 2.4GHz and 5GHz...

D-Links DIR-855 router has more features than most, but these come at a price. The most obvious is the bright OLED screen, which makes it easy to check the status of your network at the touch of a button. It can display up- and down-stream speeds...

Does 'Xtreme' refer to the price tag? In terms of features, D-Link’s DIR-855 came the closest to matching Netgear’s routerlicious WNDR3700. It’s a simultaneous dual-band model that allows you to run guest networks on either the 2.4- or 5GHz frequencies...

Sure, the D-Link DIR-855 has an OLED display, green tech, a USB port, and decent performance. But we’re not convinced that all of this router’s extra features are worth twice the price of competing dual-band models. The Linksys WRT610N, at $149, is a b...
