I currently have the NETGEAR and got $30 coupon from a company called Mwave because they sold me an incompatible laptop battery.

Thinking about grabbing the D-Link DIR-615 from their website and selling one of the routers.


Which should I keep?

I wouldn't buy a D Link router. A had to config a D Link router and it was a complete pain in the ass. The suplied quick setup CD was useless and I spent 30min configurating it.

Keep the NETGEAR WNR2000 and install DD-WRT on it which is very simple to do.
I have the WNR3500L which adds gigabit net and usb storage support over the WNR2000.
I haven't had to touch it in over a year works perfect 100% of the time and has every feature I could possibly want thanks to DD-WRT.
