The DGL-4500 from D-Link is a premium priced, gamer branded broadband router that contains three of the latest technologies for 2008: gigabit ethernet, draftN support, and dual band. While all the main buzzwords are there, a few caveats need to be mentioned, particularly the fact that while the router broadcasts in both the 2.4GHz or 5.0GHz spectrums, it can't do both simultaneously. The 5.0GHz is preferred due to decreased interference from devices such as microwaves and cordless phones, however compatible adapters are more rare and more expensive. In a further attempt to justify the premium price D-Link includes an OLED screen, similar to the Belkin N1 Vision that lets you monitor your network, and make simple configuration changes directly from the router itself.
