I have tried several different units (entry level) for bridging and these units were the only ones that allowed me to setup a bridge with WPA2. Lots of options for various types of setups and very stable. The stock ant. provided a good connection, but since these will only be bridging 2 networks, I also grabbed a set of DWL-M60AT Directional Indoor Antenna’s to limit my broadcast area and boost my signal strength. I bought a few extra units to use as Access Points and they have good coverage & stability. They are a few bucks more more than some other units on the market, but you get what you pay for!

I was having trouble w/ another brands wireless repeater. D-link tech said a wireless access point would not only extend range but you also would not lose any speed. Set up was a brezze. It performs great – Iam totally happy – Rich

This Wireless Access Point provides great additional coverage in my home. We already have a DI-624 to cover half the house, but I wanted something to cover our expansive back yard as well. So I run a Ethernet cable to the sliding glass door downstairs and have this wireless access point setup on the table next to the door. Now I can roam the backyard with my laptop and have an optimal connection to the Internet.
Setup was simple, basically follow the instructions and it works. Wireless Access points aren’t hard to to setup anyway, but this was about as easy as it can get. My entire network is 108Mbps enabled.

I couldn’t be more pleased with this wireless access point. I set it all up in a matter of minutes, secured it with WEP in seconds and rebooted with zero problems. Connected with my DWL-G650 from D-Link and even my friends came over and tested it with thier built in wireless laptops and everything worked fine. Of course only when I told them the WEP passkey.

I set this up to be fairly static in the fact that it sits on my desk and doesn’t need to move, but I have been known to take it to a friends house, plug it into his network and change a couple settings to allow everyone to use it. very portable in that aspect.

Let me just say I use these where I work for our entire corporate network. They come with a 3 year warranty last I checked and are good quality for the most part. I see quite a few complains listed here but my thoughts are as follows:

I have purchased about 40 of these access points and have only had to RMA 5 of them because I use them in “client access mode.” For some reason they seem to just quit functioning correctly after a while. Most of you will use “access point mode” so nothing to worry about. I have had most in access point mode and they’ve been running 2.5 years + non stop with no issues.

Also, go to D-Links website and download the latest firmware revision of 2.10 if the router doesn’t already have it. You can configure the access point via a web browser or you can download D-Link’s Airplus Extreme AP Manager off their site too. For ease of use stick with the web browser since it doesn’t require the software although for simple configuration the AP Manager is preferred especially if your doing more than one.

Lastly, these access point used in client mode can (for those not familiar) be used as an “external” wireless card. What’s the benefit to this? Instead of having a performance killing PCI card these are better and more stable in my professional opinion. We had issues with D-Link and Orinico PCI cards locking computers up. Some conflicts with certain Southbridge motherboard chipsets. Long story…

Also, I do use these in Point to Point and repeater modes and as long as your running the latest firmware revision you should have no problems. Hope this review helps at least one person.

I like this wireless AP a lot. I’ve used it for a couple different situations thus far, but it is usually my main AP for my home network.

The different modes are majorly convenient as there were times when I needed a wireless client/adapter card, but didn’t have one with me. I just happened to have this AP along with me and configured it for client mode and I was suddenly able to get online. Amazing convenience!

The setup and upgrade and configurations aren’t the easiest thing to get right away, especially if you are a novice at wireless networks. Although I found once you are up to speed on the terms and how to get around the interface you will really notice the ease of use this actually has.

Purchased 2 DWL-2100AP’s to use as a bridge between 2 buildings with an unobstructed distance of about 750ft. I was expecting the usual 2-day setup headache to integrate these into the network, but to my surprise the 2100AP worked perfectly once the initial configuration was completed. Plugged in an old Linksys WAP54g to the far end of the bridge and created a greatly expanded network. Total setup time took less than 1 hour. I have not measured data transfer, but it seems very good. No problems with streaming video, etc.

The instructions for the 2100AP are a little sketchy, and D-link seems to interchange some technical terms that mean the same thing (adds color and confusion to their writing!). However, I did not find the instructions any worse than the several Linksys or Netgear Wireless Routers that I have installed over the past couple of years.

If we get a couple of years out of these, for the price, I’ll be happy. It seems like there is no middle of the road wireless equipment. Either it is really cheap of dubious quality or really expensive. Someone needs to come out with some equipment that is of better quality at a reasonable price.

This is an excellent Access Point. The setup is extremely easy. I used the built in wizard and my wireless network was up in minutes.

I have quite a bit of experience with routers, access points and other networking products and by far D-LINK is the best!!!! The tech support team for D-Link exchanged a defective Gigabit switch within one day!!!!

I highly reccomend this product!

I picked the DWL-2100AP because the documentation read that this unit supports 5 different operating modes. The mode I was interested in was the Point-to-Multipoint bridging mode. I’ve heard this type of configuration can be very tricky and I was a bit skeptical about getting it to work. Much to my surprise, the first test I ran went very well:

This type of setup requires multiple AP’s – one to act as a base, and the others to pick up the signal from remote locations.

First, I setup 2 AP’s and configured them each for the bridging mode (the base set to PtMP Bridge – the remote set to PtP Bridge)

Then I set the D-Link on my roof (with the aid of the DWL-P100 – Power over Ethernet Adaptor) and drove to a friend’s house about a ¼ mile away. I pulled out a laptop running Netstumbler (www.netstumbler.com) to see if I could pick up the signal. If conditions were absolutely perfect, I picked up on occasional `blip’ – not nearly enough to maintain a connection. Then I hooked up a second DWL-2100AP (preset to the same SSID) to bridge the connection. The initial results were awesome. As soon as the remote access point powered on, it bridged the connection to my base station. Netstumbler only picked up the remote AP (since I was right next to it) but I confirmed that the bridge was working by hitting Amazon.com. All this was done using the standard out-of-the-box antennas. I was truly impressed.

I was inspired to try this project by Jeff Duntemann’s book, “Jeff Duntemnn’s Wi-Fi Guide, Second Edition” (ISBN: 1932111883). Eventually, I will put the AP’s in a weather-proof housing and add external antennas.

The only downside I can think of is the fact that D-Link does not have very good documentation – in the box or on the web. I’ve come to learn that many Wi-Fi vendors lack in this area, so D-Link is no worse than any others. The ease with which I set up the Bridge was astounding. D-Link does a great job of making their equipment easy to use!
